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. What is a privacy breach? An unauthorized acquisition, access, use, or disclosure of protected health information (PHI) which puts at risk 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. This includes the services 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. Click Report a Privacy Incident/Breach to report online. What is the Fraud, Waste, and Abuse (FWA) Program? IEHP has established a fraud, waste, and abuse program to detect, correct, and prevent fraud, waste, and abuse on part of IEHP Employees, IEHP Members, Providers, Vendors, delegated entities and any other entity doing business with IEHP. What is Fraud?  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: The use of someone else's identification or insurance card to obtain services. Falsifying income or location to obtain insurance. Selling of prescription medication or medical equipment obtained through IEHP. What is Waste? 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 actions of criminal neglect but rather by the misuse of resources. Examples include: Frequent visits to the ER or Urgent care for standard doctor visits. Visiting multiple doctors or hospitals to obtain controlled medications. What is Abuse? 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: Use of transportation benefits for non-medical purposes.

ely a part of that village. She first signed up with the health plan when she became pregnant with her daughter, Sophia. Regular prenatal check-ups lead to the discovery that Jean had gestational diabetes. But the diabetes didn’t go away after Sophia was born. As a new mom, Jean was hesitant to take medications. So she asked her Doctors if she could try to control her diabetes with lifestyle and diet changes instead. They agreed and set her up with a nutritionist and a company that mails glucose testing strips directly to her home. “My Doctors actually listened to my concerns and were very supportive,” the 41-year-old Rancho Cucamonga resident said. “It meant a lot to me because it showed they weren’t just treating my condition, they were treating me – the person.” When Jean struggled with behavioral health issues, her Doctors listened to her again. IEHP approved referrals for a therapist and continues to approve them as needed. Jean said she noticed a huge difference after attending sessions regularly. “If you’re not okay emotionally, then you can’t be okay physically,” she explained. And Jean added that Sophia’s Doctors are just as amazing as hers. Getting immunizations, check-ups and medicines for her 5-year-old are never an issue. And that goes a long way toward keeping both mom and daughter healthy and happy. “They know us by name whenever we go into the office for an appointment,” she said. “They’ve seen my daughter grow up and it’s like they’re part of our family now. Everyone there and at IEHP are taking very good care of us.”

HP!   In early 2022, IEHP launched an innovative technology called IEHP Voice ID. This voice recognition system uses your voiceprints to identify you.  Your speech tones can be stored in safe databases and later used to identify your unique voice—like fingerprints or facial scans.  How will I benefit from using IEHP Voice ID?  By opting in to IEHP Voice ID, you can save the time it would take to go through the series of questions to prove your identity. Each Member who uses IEHP Voice ID could cut the time to verify their identity from 3 minutes to less than 30 seconds! Using IEHP Voice ID streamlines each call—our Member Services representatives will know right away that they are talking to the right member.  Is it safe?  IEHP Voice ID is more secure than passwords, PINS, security questions, and older forms of security. The IEHP Voice ID system will send an alert if it finds copied speech or a recorded voiceprint. Voice biometrics experts say that a voiceprint is safer. It includes more than 100 unique behavioral traits of each person, such as accent, pitch, length of the vocal tract, and so on. How can I sign up for IEHP Voice ID? IEHP Members can call IEHP Member Services at 1-800-440-IEHP (4347), Monday–Friday, 7am–7pm, and Saturday–Sunday, 8am–5pm. TTY users should call 1-800-718-4347 to sign up for IEHP Voice ID. The use of this service is optional. It does not cost you anything to sign up.
