Medi-Cal Eligibility Ratio (MER) for the SFY 2022-23 CRCS Report

The MER is calculated annually and used to apportion cost to the Medi‑Cal Program. To calculate the MER for the SFY 2022-23 CRCS (due March 1, 2024), LEA BOP Providers must use the following methodology:

  • Numerator (Number of Medi-Cal Enrolled Students who are qualified to receive federal financial participation in October 2022): Report the unduplicated count of Medi-Cal enrolled students who are eligible for federal financial participation (FFP) in October 2022. The number of Medi-Cal enrolled students who are FFP qualified will be determined by each LEA based on the Medi-Cal Data Match Transfer System (MOVEit) eligibility confirmation results.

  • Denominator (Total Number of Students Enrolled in the LEA): Report the unduplicated count of all students enrolled in the LEA. LEA Providers must obtain enrollment data as of the first Wednesday in October (October 5, 2022).
