Full-Scope Coverage for Pregnancy
Californians who are pregnant may receive Medi-Cal or MCAP coverage for all medically necessary services, plus dental and mental health services, while pregnant if otherwise eligible. This full-scope coverage extends for one year following the end of pregnancy (regardless of citizenship). The full-scope benefits include all medically necessary care, not just that related to the pregnancy.
To find more about the eligibility for these programs, see their websites. MCAP & Pregnancy Medi-Cal

This is automatic for all Medi-Cal or MCAP eligible individuals who report a pregnancy or are postpartum, regardless of immigration status or how the pregnancy ends.
