BOARD OF GOVERNORS MEETING #244 April 2, 2015 ● 2:00 PM L.A. Care Health Plan 1055 W. 7th Street, Los Angeles, CA 90017 1 About L.A. Care Health Plan Mission Statement L.A. Care’s mission is to provide access to quality health care for Los Angeles County's vulnerable and low-income communities and residents and to support the safety net required to achieve that purpose. Overview Committed to the promotion of accessible, affordable and high quality health care, L.A. Care Health Plan (Local Initiative Health Authority of Los Angeles County) is an independent local public agency created by the State of California to provide health coverage to low-income Los Angeles County residents. With more than 1.6 million members in five product lines, L.A. Care is the nation’s largest publicly operated health plan. L.A. Care Health Plan is governed by 13 board members representing specific stakeholder groups, including consumer members, physicians, federally qualified health centers, children’s health care providers, local hospitals and the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services. L.A. Care advances individual and community health through a variety of targeted activities including a Community Health Investment Fund that has awarded more than $132 million throughout the years to support the health care safety net and expand health coverage. The patient-centered health plan has a robust system of consumer advisory groups, including eleven Regional Community Advisory Committees (governed by an Executive Community Advisory Committee), health promoters, and three Family Resource Centers that offer free health education and exercise classes to the community, and has made significant investments in Health Information Technology for the benefit of the more than 10,000 doctors and other health care professionals who serve L.A. Care members. Programs Medi-Cal – In addition to offering a direct Medi-Cal line of business, L.A. Care works with three subcontracted health plans to provide coverage to Medi-Cal members. These partners are Anthem Blue Cross, Care 1st Health Plan, and Kaiser Permanente. Since 2012, L.A. Care has enrolled more than 170,000 Seniors and Persons with Disabilities as members, and as of January 1, an additional 164,000 Healthy Way LA members transitioned to L.A. Care’s Medi-Cal program. Medi-Cal beneficiaries represent a vast majority of L.A. Care members. L.A. Care Covered™ – As a state selected Qualified Health Plan, L.A. Care provides the opportunity for all members of a family to receive health coverage under one heath plan in the Covered California state exchange. L.A. Care Cal MediConnect Plan– L.A. Care Cal MediConnect Plan provides coordinated care for Los Angeles County seniors and people with disabilities who are eligible for Medicare and Medi-Cal. L.A. Care Healthy Kids (0-5) – Sponsored by First 5 LA and the Children’s Health Initiative of Greater Los Angeles, Healthy Kids (0-5) provides health coverage for children who do not qualify for Medi-Cal and Healthy Families. PASC-SEIU Homecare Workers Health Care Plan – L.A. Care provides health coverage to Los Angeles County’s In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) workers, who enable our most vulnerable community members to remain safely in their homes by providing services such as meal preparation and personal care services. www.lacare.org Facebook/lacarehealth LinkedIn/company/l.a.-care-health-plan Twitter: @lacarehealth2 Updated 3/27/2015 AGENDA BOARD OF GOVERNORS MEETING No. 244 Thursday, April 2, 2015, 2:00 P.M.
