Why Choose the Ventura County Health Care Plan (VCHCP)?

One important reason is because VCHCP has been designated “Comunity Provider Plan” for Ventura County. Because of this, your monthly premium will be less than with any other health plan in the County.

We provide quality health care coverage for eligible children living in Ventura County, with an expansive network of community and County healthcare system providers.

Your Choice

  • You choose from a wide network of Primary Care Physicians (PCP) conveniently located throughout the county.
  • Female children can see any network OB-GYN physician without a referral from a PCP.

Medical Services

  • Wherever you live in Ventura County, we have urgent care and emergency facilities close by.
  • VCHCP has some of the finest doctors in the county to take care of your children.
  • Prescription drugs are available from most pharmacies in your community, including Sav-On, CVS, Rite Aid, Medicine Shoppe, Costco, Vons, and many independent pharmacies in your neighborhood.

We Work for You – Here Is How

  • Your Primary Care Physician will provide all basic healthcare services when your child needs them, including immunizations and other preventive health services.
