Prop 44 Targets Clinic Spending | San Jose News
Description
California voters are facing a pivotal decision on Proposition 44, which would require community health clinics serving Medi-Cal patients to spend at least 90% of their revenue directly on patient care—forcing major cuts to admin costs and redirecting funds to frontline services. Backed by labor unions worried about federal funding cuts, the measure aims to ensure taxpayer dollars reach those most in need, with penalties for non-compliance and a chance to recover fines if clinics rebound within five years. This could reshape how vital safety-net clinics operate across the state.
