California Medi-Cal Question: Can I Quit Job and Immediately Qualify?

For Medi-Cal in CA, does anyone know if I can quit my job and go on Medi-Cal, or is there a waiting period after quitting my job to qualify?

I have a shoulder problem that might require surgery and Medi-Cal will make it so I pay nothing, but if I keep working and use my job’s health insurance, it will cost me a ton (at least $5000) with the doctor visits and procedures

So i want to know is it possible to quit job, go on Medi-Cal, get my shoulder fixed, then get back to work?

Or is this gaming the system?

For those in other states, what I’m describing is like quitting a job to get on Medicaid, is this allowed?
