针对待定申请人和新注册 Medi-Cal 会员的信息
由于通过加州全保网站和县人力服务机构收到的 Medi-Cal 申请数量巨大，因此卫生保健服务部 (DHCS) 提供此信息以帮助确保您能够获得所需的护理。
待定申请人
对于那些已经申请并且可能符合资格但正在等待申请最终审批的人来说，在等待期间，您可以通过以下方式获得即时护理：
- 遇到紧急情况您可以去医院。 医院推定资格 (PE) 计划为成人、孕妇、儿童和前寄养人员提供最长两个月的临时、免费的 Medi-Cal 福利。 为了获得医院 PE 福利，您必须在住院期间在线完成简化的申请。 您将立即收到资格认定通知。
- 您可以访问当地县人力服务办公室。 您可以使用您的信息来确认您的 Medi-Cal 资格并获得临时身份证。 这将允许您获得服务直到您的注册完成。
- 孕妇可以从某些 Medi-Cal 提供商和诊所获得临时 Medi-Cal 保险。
- 儿童可以获得已登记的 Medi-Cal 提供商和儿童诊所提供的临时 Medi-Cal 保险。
一旦您的 Medi-Cal 资格得到确认，健康保险将从您申请的当月的第一天开始生效。
如果您想了解更多信息或查看申请状态，请联系您所在县的人力服务机构。
新注册会员
对于那些符合 Medi-Cal 资格并拥有 Medi-Cal 福利识别卡 (BIC)，但尚未选择管理式医疗保健计划的人，以下选项可以帮助您找到护理。 在您具有临时 Medi-Cal 资格期间，您可以从已登记的 Medi-Cal 提供商处获得医疗保健服务。 接受 Medi-Cal 按服务收费 (FFS) 的人将能够帮助您。 在预约之前，请务必询问他们是否接受 FFS。 如果没有，您应该联系其他 Medi-Cal 提供商。
如果在找到医生之前出现医疗紧急情况，请拨打 9-1-1 或前往最近医院的急诊室。 Medi-Cal 确实为已登记的会员提供紧急服务，如果您向急诊室工作人员出示您的 BIC，Medi-Cal 将支付您接受的服务费用。
获得您需要的护理
在您的 Medi-Cal 申请最终审理期间，您可以通过以下一些方法获得所需的护理：
- Community Health Centers & Clinics: Another way you can get care is to go to a clinic called a Federally Qualified Health Center. Find the health center in your area.
- County Human Services Offices: Your county human services agency may be able to help you find a doctor or a list of doctors in your area. Use our County Office List to reach offices nearest you.
- Dental Providers: You can find a dental provider on the Medi-Cal Dental website under the “Find a Dentist” link, or by calling (800) 322-6384.
- 急诊室：如上所述，如果您遇到紧急情况并且无法立即找到医生，您可以去任何医院的急诊室。 如果您向急诊室的工作人员出示您的 BIC，Medi-Cal 将支付您所接受的服务费用。
- Find a Doctor on a Managed Care Health Plan: When your Medi-Cal application is finalized, you will be able to join a managed care health plan. Until then, you can find a doctor on the websites of those Medi-Cal managed care health plans. Click the name of your county to find the plans that serve your area. When you find a doctor, call and make sure that they accept Medi-Cal FFS. If they do not, you should contact another doctor on the Medi-Cal Managed Care Health Plan Directory webpage.
- Health Care Options: This DHCS program has information to help you make choices about Medi-Cal benefits and how you can get them. Visit the Health Care Options website for help finding a doctor or dentist, and for more information about Medi-Cal managed care health and dental plans.
- Pharmacy Benefits: If you need a prescription filled you can contact your local pharmacies to see if they accept Medi-Cal. For more information, please visit the Pharmacy Benefits’ Frequently Asked Questions webpage.
- Public Hospitals: Some counties have a public hospital system that lets you get care at a hospital. You can find out which counties and which hospitals are in this program by visiting the Safety Net Institute Members webpage.
- Yellow Pages: The Yellow Pages contain lists of local health care providers. Only providers who are enrolled as Medi-Cal health care providers will be paid by Medi-Cal for treating you. Ask the provider if they accept Medi-Cal FFS before you make your appointment.
