Patients phoning for Medi-Cal help are hit with hourlong waits, disconnections, audit finds
More than half of children in California rely on Medi-Cal — the California Medicaid program — for their health insurance coverage, including 1.4 million children 5 and under. In some counties including Kern and Fresno, the newly released audit found that average waits for callers stretched longer than an hour and a half. That number was steeper in San Bernardino County, where nearly half of phone calls were cut off because so many people were calling, the audit found. In San Diego, second only to L.A. County in Medi-Cal enrollees, the average wait for callers was just under a minute, the audit found. State Sen. Richard Roth (D-Riverside) said he introduced the bill after hearing about long waits and Californians "being completely unable to get through at all, which is totally unacceptable."

Here’s a quick explanation of why you, too, might find yourself besieged by political texts and what you can do about them. The law does bar political groups from using an autodialer to spam you with texts unless you give explicit consent in advance. When I replied “Stop” to a fundraising text from the Progressive Turnout Project, for example, I immediately received a text telling me I had been unsubscribed.
