The Assembly approved Reagan's Medi-Cal reform plan creating prepaid health plans for welfare recipients, setting doctor fees, and capping state and county contributions. The bill trims services for the indigent temporarily and introduces co payments of ten dollars per doctor visit while limiting annual visits and hospital stays.

HEW will wait 30 days for public comment before ruling.
The Assembly Transportation Committee rejected Senate backed legislation requiring BART to serve its three county region before expansion. The move aligns with Republican tied reform bills, aiming for welfare reform action within about ten days. The measure kept a provision protecting welfare grants from reductions if caseloads exceed projections.
