You may be able to get transportation, meals, lodging, and other costs such as parking, tolls, etc. if you or your family needs help to get to a medical appointment related to a CCS-eligible condition and there is no other available resource.
You should call L.A. Care and request pre-approval (prior authorization) before you pay out-of-pocket for transportation meals and lodging.
L.A. Care does provide non-medical and non-emergency medical transportation as noted in the Benefits and Services section of this online handbook.
If your transportation or travel expenses are found necessary and L.A. Care verifies that you tried to get transportation through L.A. Care, you can get reimbursed from L.A. Care. We must reimburse you within 60 calendar days of you submitting the required receipts and proof of transportation expenses.
