visits. Well-child visits are a comprehensive set of preventive, screening,
diagnostic, and treatment services.
CalViva Health will make appointments and provide transportation to help
children get the care they need.
Preventive care can be regular health check-ups and screenings to help your
doctor find problems early. Regular check-ups help you or your child’s doctor
look for any problems with your or your child’s medical, dental, vision,
hearing, mental health, and any substance use disorders. CalViva Health
covers screening services (including blood lead level assessment) any time
there is a need for them, even if it is not during your or your child’s regular
check-up. Also, preventive care can be shots you or your child need.
CalViva Health must make sure that all enrolled children get needed shots at
the time of any health care visit. Preventive care services and screenings are
available at no cost and without pre-approval (prior authorization). However,
general developmental screenings for members age 6-20 will require prior
authorization.
When a physical problem or mental health issue is found during a check-up or
screening, there may be care that can fix or help the problem. If the care is
medically necessary and CalViva Health is responsible for paying for the
care, then CalViva Health covers the care at no cost to you. These services
include:
Doctor, nurse practitioner, and hospital care
Shots to keep you healthy
Physical, speech/language, and occupational therapies
