LACMA’s partner L.A. Care Health Plan has committed $4,732,298 in Incentive Payment Program (IPP) funding to 33 providers and community-based organizations (CBOs), offering Enhanced Care Management and Community Supports as part of California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal (CalAIM).
This is the health plan’s third round of IPP grants, bringing the total commitment since 2022 to $20,599,835. The funding supports technology upgrades, as well as the recruitment, hiring and training of new staff to help providers deliver the CalAIM services.
“The incentive payments will ensure that these providers and CBOs have the support needed to help CalAIM succeed in offering more equitable and coordinated care for our members and others in Los Angeles County,” said John Baackes, L.A. Care CEO. “We recognize that health care is more than a plastic card in a wallet. This ambitious initiative addresses the critical social needs that are found outside a doctor’s office and helps to improve the wellbeing of our members.”
LACMA is proud of our groundbreaking relationship with LA Care Health Plan as we share common goals: to help medical practices thrive in an uncertain environment, to address inequities of care and support both medical practices and communities.
