Four years ago, I found out I was pregnant and more established no health insurance. This was a very psychological and alarming moment in my being alive. How am I pouring to pay for my infant to come into this earth? I will have doctor bills as well as the hospital bills. After a few restless hours of darkness, I stumbled upon a California government program called AIM “Access for Infants & Mothers”. I sent the demands in and a bulky weight was lifted off the shoulders of my husband and I. Here is one or two insortation about the AIM Program.

You are eligible if you are a pregnant woman phase 18 or older living in California. An applicant can be yourself, your husband, a legal guardian or natural parent, foster parent, or stepparent if the pregnant child lives with you. Income of a parent or legal guardian is not used to resolve eligibility.

How do you pay for the AIM program?

The AIM Program will divide the cost into 12 monthly installments. However, you will have to send a cashiers check or money order with your completed application. The money you send with the application will be applied towards your 1.5% cost.
