Wic / Medical in California

So with wic how does the process work ? Tomorrow I am taking my referral and  gonna try to get medical since I have the temporary medical.. What do I need to take with me? Also do you get your wic vouchers the same day or later.? I know medical takes time but I dunno about wic.
