Common questions
- I have L.A. Care. Can I use these doulas?
- Not yet. We're in contracting with L.A. Care now, so these doulas aren't in network for it. L.A. Care's member services can point you to its own doula list.
- Which health plans can I use with a doula in Los Angeles?
- On this page: Health Net, plus regular (fee-for-service) Medi-Cal. If yours isn't listed, the directory shows every plan we work with, and we can tell you where yours stands.
- What does doula care in Los Angeles County cost?
- Medi-Cal members pay nothing for covered doula care. If you have a non-Medi-Cal plan, your costs depend on your plan, and Orka can help you check.
