1: What has changed most in California during the past few
decades?
Bob Freeman: From my point of view, which
is focused around the Medi-Cal Program, it’s two things. First,
the sheer growth of Medi-Cal that today covers one in three
Californians. When I first became involved with Medi-Cal in the
mid 1990’s, it was a program keeping the state’s most destitute –
lowincome moms and kids, as well as low-income seniors and people
with disabilities – with access to health care.
