Major Organ Transplant (MOT)

Transplants for children under age 21

State law requires children who need transplants to be referred to the California Children’s Services (CCS) program to see if the child is eligible for CCS. If the child is eligible for CCS, CCS will cover the costs for the transplant and related services. If the child is not eligible for CCS, then Molina Healthcare will refer the child to a qualified transplant center for evaluation. If the transplant center confirms the transplant would be needed and safe, Molina Healthcare will cover the transplant and related services.
