Abstract

The Los Angeles Healthy Kids program was created in July 2003 to provide coverage to low-income, uninsured children ages zero to five years who are ineligible for Medi-Cal or Healthy Families. The report provides a descriptive analysis of 1,087 families who completed a baseline survey during 2005.
