Not your Immigration Status. Apply for no-cost health coverage right over the phone. Call Today! 1-866-294-4347 State Law Expands Medi-Cal Services to More Adults For the first time in history, low-income Californians aged 50 and up are eligible for full-scope Medi-Cal benefits, regardless of their immigration status.  Under the law (California Assembly Bill 133), health plans like Inland Empire Health Plan (IEHP) are now able to provide these adults access to preventive health care, behavioral health services, vision care and more. In 2019, in a historic move toward health equity, the state expanded full-scope Medi-Cal services to all California residents 0-26 years old. Now, in 2022, this new law provides the most inclusive health care policy for low-income persons in the nation. Nearly 185,000 people across the state could benefit.   “When more residents have access to coordinated care and preventive services, health and wellness improves, and communities thrive,” said IEHP Chief Medical Officer Dr. Takashi Wada. “All communities, regardless of immigration status, deserve the opportunity to achieve vibrant health.” IEHP understands the fears involved when an undocumented resident applies for Medi-Cal. That is why we are making every effort to connect residents to trusted resources and support. This includes community events, partnerships with legal help like TODEC and more. “IEHP is eager to do all we can to support these adults so that they can get the care and benefits they need,” said IEHP Chief Executive Officer Jarrod McNaughton.

oncerns without the support and care they need. But there is hope. The 988 Lifeline offers the opportunity to help a countless number of people struggling with suicidal thoughts and health-related distress each day.  What is 988? This is an easy-to-remember number that people in crisis can call. It will route them to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (now known as the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline). It is a life-saving resource for people in crisis. It is a number to call to get in touch with trained crisis counselors, not police. When people call or text 988, they will be connected to trained counselors who are part of the existing Lifeline network. These counselors will listen, understand how problems are affecting the callers, provide support, and connect them to resources if necessary. How is 988 different than 911? 988 is not a new service, just a new number. The 988 code was set up to improve access to crisis services in a way that meets our country’s growing suicide and mental health-related crisis care needs. It provides easier access to the Lifeline network and related crisis resources, which are distinct from the public safety purposes of 911 (where the focus is on dispatching Emergency Medical Services, fire and police as needed). Is 988 available for substance use crisis? The Lifeline accepts calls from anyone who needs support for a suicidal, mental health and/or substance use crisis. Is the 988 Lifeline a free service? Yes, the Lifeline answers calls 24/7 in multiple languages. The 988 service also answers texts or chats (English only). Standard data rates from mobile carriers may apply to those who text to the Lifeline. If monetary help is needed for communications needs, please see www.fcc.gov/lifeline-consumers for details. Calls, texts, and chats are available to anyone who needs mental health-related or suicide crisis support.  Is Lifeline available for everyone?  It is offered to everyone in the United States, providing 24/7, free and confidential support to people in suicidal crisis or emotional distress. The 988 Lifeline offers the opportunity to help a countless number of people struggling with suicidal thoughts and health-related distress each day.

e important phone numbers including your Doctor, IEHP DualChoice Member Services, and IEHP’s 24-Hour Nurse Advice Line. Be sure to complete your health risk assessment (HRA). When you first join our plan, you get a health risk assessment (HRA) within 90 days before or after your effective enrollment date.  We must complete an HRA for you. This HRA is the basis for developing your care plan. The HRA include questions to identify your medical, LTSS, and behavioral health and functional needs.  We reach out to you to complete the HRA. We can complete the HRA by an in-person visit, telephone call, or mail. We’ll send you more information about this HRA upon your enrollment with the plan.  If our plan is new for you, you can keep using the doctors you use now for a certain amount of time, if they are not in our network. We call this continuity of care. If they are not in our network, you can keep your current providers and service authorizations at the time you enroll for up to 12 months if all of the following conditions are met:  You, your representative, or your provider asks us to let you keep using your current provider.  We establish that you had an existing relationship with a primary or specialty care provider, with some exceptions. When we say “existing relationship,” it means that you saw an out-of-network provider at least once for a non-emergency visit during the 12 months before the date of your initial enrollment in our plan. We determine an existing relationship by reviewing your available health information available or information you give us. We have 30 days to respond to your request. You can ask us to make a faster decision, and we must respond in 15 days. You or your provider must show documentation of an existing relationship and agree to certain terms when you make the request. Note: You can only make this request for services of Durable Medical Equipment (DME), transportation, or other ancillary services not included in our plan. You cannot make this request for providers of DME, transportation or other ancillary providers. After the continuity of care period ends, you will need to use doctors and other providers in the IEHP DualChoice network that are affiliated with your primary care provider’s medical group, unless we make an agreement with your out-of-network doctor. A network provider is a provider who works with the health plan. Our plan’s PCPs are affiliated with medical groups or Independent Physicians Associations (IPA). When you choose your PCP, you are also choosing the affiliated medical group. This means that your PCP will be referring you to specialists and services that are affiliated with their medical group. A medical group or IPA is a group of physicians, specialists, and other providers of health services that see IEHP Members. Your PCP, along with the medical group or IPA, provides your medical care. This includes getting authorization to see specialists or medical services such as lab tests, x-rays, and/or hospital admittance. In some cases, IEHP is your medical group or IPA.

This program includes but is not limited to: Prior to contract and monthly thereafter, review of the GSA System for Award Management (SAM), the Department of Health Care Services Medi-Cal Suspended and Ineligible list, and the Office of Inspector General’s (OIG) List of Excluded Individuals and Entities (LEIE) that are excluded from participation in government health care programs (42 CFR §10011901).

Fraud, Waste, and Abuse (FWA) IEHP has established a Fraud, Waste, and Abuse Program to detect, correct, and prevent fraud, waste, and abuse on part of Team Members, IEHP Members, Providers, Vendors, delegated entities and any other entity doing business with IEHP. Fraud Prevention Fraud Prevention, it’s a Team Effort In an effort to prevent fraud and abuse, IEHP encourages Providers and their staff to report any suspicious circumstances when they arise. You may want to ask for another form of identification in addition to the IEHP Member identification card. Identification with both a picture and a signature, such as a valid driver’s license or State identification card, are suggested. We are informing Members of this concern and are requesting that they have additional identification available when they come to you. To obtain more compliance guidelines, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) offers assistance (by clicking on this link you will be leaving the IEHP website). Fraud is knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme or artifice to defraud any health care benefit program, or to obtain, by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises, any of the money or property owned by, or under the custody or control of, any health care benefit program. Examples include: Knowingly billing for services or prescriptions not furnished or supplies not provided Knowingly altering claim forms for a higher payment Selling medicine, medical equipment, or other things received through IEHP Waste includes overuse of services, or other practices that, directly or indirectly, result in unnecessary costs. Waste is generally not considered to be caused by criminally negligent actions but rather by the misuse of resources. Examples include: Conducting excessive office visits Writing excessive prescriptions or ordering excessive tests Prescribing more medications than necessary for the treatment of a specific condition Abuse includes actions that may, directly or indirectly, result in unnecessary costs and improper payment or services. Abuse involves payment for items or services when there is no legal entitlement to that payment and the provider has not knowingly and/or intentionally misrepresented facts to obtain payment. Examples include: Billing for unnecessary medical services or medical equipment Billing for brand name drugs when generics are dispensed Misusing codes on a claim, such as upcoding and unbundling codes.

Privacy Incident/Breach IEHP has established a HIPAA Privacy Program to ensure that Member’s health information is properly protected while allowing the flow of health information needed to provide and promote high-quality health care. A privacy breach is defined as unauthorized acquisition, access, use, or disclosure of protected health information (PHI) which compromises the security or privacy of such information. PHI is health information that relates to a Member’s past, present or future physical or mental health or condition, including the provision of his/her health care, or payment for that care and contains personally identifiable information (PII) such as name, SSN, DOB, Member ID, address, or any other unique identifier related to the Member. This generally means that a breach occurs when PHI is accessed, used, or disclosed to an individual or entity that does not have a business reason to know that information. The law does allow information to be accessed, used, or disclosed when it is related to treatment, payment, or healthcare operations directly associated with the work that we do at IEHP on behalf of our Members.

page. What is CCS? CCS is a statewide program that enables children with qualifying conditions to receive specialized services related to that condition independent from IEHP. The CCS program provides diagnostic and treatment services, and medical case management for those who have qualifying conditions. CCS also provides occupational and physical therapy services through the Medical Therapy Program (MTP). The Medical Therapy Program (MTP) is a special program that provides physical therapy (PT), occupational therapy (OT), for children who have disabling conditions, generally due to neurological or musculoskeletal disorders Who Qualifies? The CCS program services children and young adults under the age of 21 who have eligible medical conditions. Examples of CCS-eligible conditions include, but are not limited to, chronic and acute medical conditions such as cystic fibrosis, hemophilia, cerebral palsy, heart disease, cancer, traumatic injuries, and infectious diseases producing major sequelae. For a more inclusive list of diagnoses and medical criteria of qualifying conditions please reference the below links: https://www.dhcs.ca.gov/services/ccs https://www.dhcs.ca.gov/services/ccs/Documents/CCSMedicalEligibility.pdf Provider Responsibilities Primary Care Physicians (PCPs), Specialty Providers, and IPA/Medical Groups are responsible for performing appropriate baseline health assessments and diagnostic evaluations sufficient to identify children and young adults with potential CCS-qualifying conditions and refer to CCS as needed. PCPs are responsible for all well child and pediatric preventative services as these services are not a covered benefit of CCS. PCPs are also responsible in assisting CCS members with transition from CCS to IEHP authorizations at the age of 21 when members age out of the CCS program. Benefits of CCS Enrollment CCS Clients are not restricted to in area providers but have access to any CCS paneled provider within the state of California when a need for the specialty care has been determined to be CCS eligible. Once a client is determined to be eligible for CCS, the client will continue to be medically eligible for CCS until treatment is complete or age 21 when the CCS program ends. Additional Resources To assist our valued Providers, every Member active with CCS has a distinct red “CCS” widget in the Provider Portal. Opening that widget enables you to view the diagnosis being treated and any Specialists and their treatment authorization range.

Public Safety Power Shutoff Alerts A Public Safety Power Shutoff, also called a PSPS, occurs in response to severe weather. Power is turned off to help prevent wildfire and keep communities safe. We encourage you to sign up for alerts so you know when a Public Safety Power Shutoff may occur and when your power is restored.  Click here to sign up.  Medicine Safety Some medicines may need to be stored in a refrigerator to keep their strength, including many liquid medicines. When the power is out for a day or more, throw away any medicines that should be refrigerated, unless the medicines label says otherwise. If a life depends on the refrigerated medicines (for example, insulin), use them only until a new supply is available. Replace all refrigerated medicines as soon as you can. Resources Refrigerated Medicine Storage (PDF) Insulin Storage and Product Switching in an Emergency (PDF) Comparison of Insulins (PDF) Durable Medical Equipment Safety Use the checklist below to prepare for a power outage. Check your backup power equipment frequently to ensure it will function during an emergency. Call your power and water companies about your needs for life-support devices (home dialysis, suction, breathing machines, etc.) in advance of a disaster. Many utility companies keep a “priority reconnection service” list and map of the locations of power-dependent customers for use in an emergency.
