Medi-Cal and CalAIM in San Diego County

Statistics and Data Resources

Medi-Cal (Medicaid for California) offers free or low-cost health coverage for people who qualify. Medi-Cal provides a wide range of health services, which may be accessed as medically necessary.

The Medi-Cal Dental Program (formerly known as Denti-Cal) is the part of Medi-Cal that covers a range of essential dental services.

California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal (CalAIM) is transforming Medi-Cal to create a more coordinated, person-centered, and equitable health system. Medi-Cal members have access to new and improved services to receive care that goes beyond the doctor’s office or hospital and addresses physical, behavioral health, and social care needs.
