Getting Started with Kaiser Permanente Medi-Cal

If you are currently a Kaiser Permanente member, and are new to Medi-Cal, you can enjoy the peace of mind of keeping the Kaiser Permanente doctor you know and trust, and getting the same high quality of care and convenient services you depend on.

If you are new to Kaiser Permanente, visit kp.org/newmember to learn how to get the most out of your new Kaiser Permanente membership.

Act for a family member

If you have your own kp.org member account, you may be able to help certain family members with their health care by making appointments, looking over most of their test results, emailing their doctor, and more. For more information, go to Act for a Family Member.

If you do not have a kp.org member account and would like to act on behalf of someone who is a Kaiser Permanente member, you can set up a non-member caregiver account. Set up your account here.
