Members serve four year terms. AIM is part of California's efforts to increase health coverage of pregnant women and their infants. Since the program began in 1992, over 46,000 pregnant women and their infants have been served by the AIM program. The pregnant woman participates in the cost of her health care services through a low cost subscriber contribution. The State of California supplements the subscriber contribution to cover the full cost of care.
Families participating in the program choose their health, dental and vision plan.
Services in the program are delivered through contracts with 6 health insurance plans. Californians qualifying for the program participate in the payment for the cost of their coverage by paying premiums. The HIPC is the nation's pre-eminent small employer purchasing pool. Through PacAdvantage, small businesses can get affordable health, dental, and vision coverage by buying insurance together as one big group. Gray Davis, Governor.
