BabyCAL
Women without health insurance should consider applying for Medi-Cal if they become pregnant. Eligibility requirements are less restrictive for pregnancy-only coverage. Sonoma County residents may apply for Medi-Cal at the Department of Human Services, 2550 Paulin Drive, Santa Rosa or at a location that provides Medi-Cal application assistance. Women who think they might be eligible are encouraged to contact a provider participating in the Presumptive Eligibility Program. This program issues women a temporary card to begin their prenatal care prior to completing the formal Medi-Cal application process.
Comprehensive Perinatal Services Program (CPSP)
Nutritional, psychosocial and health education support services are available to perinatal patients through the Comprehensive Perinatal Services Program. Qualified providers may receive reimbursement from Medi-Cal for delivering these enhanced obstetrical services.
Access for Infants and Mothers (AIM)
Women that are uninsured or underinsured and do not meet income guidelines for Medi-Cal may qualify for the AIM Program. AIM offers affordable prenatal and maternity insurance for middle-income pregnant women, and health insurance for their babies through Healthy Families program.
