Since I'm pregnant, am I automatically qualified for straight medi-cal? I know you're eligible if…

They should give you pregnancy medical. That covers only the pregnancy

That's what I got.

@ellamas, how do I switch my med-cal over to the pregnancy plan? That pregnancy medi-cal covers any clinic ？and obgyn? And urgent care visits? Can you message me please?

Go to the medical office and apply. Are you married ??? Or alone ??

Not married . I thought it would be quicker since I already have a basic medi-cal. But I'll stop being lazy and go in the am. Thank you @ellamas

I don't think anyone can get on straight medi cal now but you should be able to have pregnant medi cal that covers clinic OB/GYN visits. Your local hospital might have a medi cal worker that can help you. I'm

Thanks @kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom

Cause la care isn't accepted by any obgyn or even planned parenthoods obgyn

i'm single, i applied for straight medical you need to make sure you ask for straight medical and not pregnancy medical. however; things have changed. so just because you have medical that's not the only insurance you'll have you have to chose a plan. so i have medical anthem blue cross.

it still works like medical tho. no copays

I'm gonna check it out tomorrow

@kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom, you could get straight medical you just have to pick a plan. they ask you if you want pregnancy medical or straight medical.

@vanessarazo, thanks

no problem. you should get straight medical tho, don't ask for pregnancy medical cus that's obviously only for pregnancy related. you're better off getting straight medical, could use it anywhere that takes the plan that you'll choose. if you've had kaiser before in the last 6 months i think it is. you ca. pick them too. so it'll be medical kaiser plan .

I'm diabetic my insurance options are linited

@vanessarazo,

just let them know that doesn't mean you don't qualify for straight medical just when you choose your plan ask to speak to someone to see what plan fits you best

Thanks so much @vanessarazo

no problem good luck! :)
