Medi-Cal for Kids and Teens (MCKT)

Children, teens, and young adults (under age 21) enrolled in Medi-Cal qualify for free services and support to stay or get healthy. This includes check-ups, shots, health screenings, and treatment for physical, mental, and dental health problems.

Free Check-Ups: It's important to take your child to regular check-ups, even if they're not sick. Regular check-ups can help keep your child healthy. Check-ups can find and prevent health problems early. All care is free unless you have Share of Cost when you qualified for Medi-Cal.

Call your Managed Care Plan: The phone number is on your plan ID card and your plan's website.
