MediCal - Medication Therapy Management
MTM is a term to describe a broad range of services offered by Pharmacists on our health care team.
The IEHP Clinical Pharmacy Team reviews the Members’ medicines, making sure they’re taking the right ones for their health conditions. If you are a Provider for IEHP Members who qualify for the MTM Program, you can let them know to look out for a letter from us. They will be enrolled automatically—unless they opt-out. MTM is offered to Members at no additional cost.
IEHP's MTM services include these core elements:
Medication therapy reviews
Medication education
Disease management
A team of Pharmacists and Doctors developed these MTM services to help provide better prescription drug coverage for our Members. For example, MTM also helps identify possible medication errors.
Medicare MTM Program
This is a free program under Medicare Part D for IEHP DualChoice Members who have multiple medical conditions, take many prescription drugs, and have high drug costs to assist with better medication management and overall health.
IEHP DualChoice Members’ enrollment includes a yearly comprehensive medication review (CMR) and regular targeted medication review (TMR) services throughout the year. MTM services include:
Comprehensive Medication Review (CMR)
An IEHP Clinical Pharmacist will provide an annual comprehensive review of the IEHP DualChoice Member’s medications over the phone. The Pharmacist will review IEHP DualChoice Member’s medications and make clinical recommendations to IEHP DualChoice Members and Providers.
Targeted Medication Review (TMR)
The IEHP Clinical Pharmacy Team will also offer TMRs through the year by reviewing issues with the participating IEHP DualChoice Member’s medicines. The team will perform TMRs for all enrolled beneficiaries every three months. The beneficiary may get TMR recommendations by mail and their Primary Care Provider may receive recommendations by fax—if the IEHP Clinical Pharmacy Team deems it necessary.
For more information, IEHP DualChoice Members eligible for CMR or TMR services can call 1-877-273-IEHP (4347), 8am-5pm (PST), 7 days a week, including holidays. TTY users should call 1-800-718-4347. Click here for a blank personal medication list.

Emergency and Post-Stabilization Care for IEHP Members
Triage and Advice Systems
IEHP provides Members triage, screening, and advice services by telephone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week through its Nurse Advice Line (NAL). By calling the NAL, Members receive assistance with access to urgent or emergency services from an on-call physician, or licensed triage personnel. IEHP Members can reach this 24/7 Nurse Advice Line at (888)-244-IEHP (4347) or 711 (TTY).
Post-Stabilization Care
IEHP requires contracted and non-contracted hospitals to obtain prior authorization for post-stabilization care for Members (patients). IEHP requests the patient’s diagnosis as indicated by the treating physician or surgeon and any other information reasonably necessary for the Plan to decide on whether to authorize post-stabilization care or to assume management of the patient’s care by prompt transfer to another facility. The hospital should request prior authorization from IEHP’s Utilization Management (UM) Department by:
Phone at (866) 649-6327; or
Fax at (909) 477-8553 to send clinical notes for medical necessity review.
IEHP makes every effort to respond to requests for necessary post-stabilization care within thirty (30) minutes of receipt. The services are considered approved if IEHP does not respond within this timeframe. All subsequent hospital day are subject to review for medical necessity.
IEHP will inform the provider of the Plan’s decision and will coordinate the transfer of the Member if IEHP denies the request for authorization of post-stabilization care and elects to transfer the Member to another health care provider.
Non-Emergency Services
If a Member presents at the emergency department for non-emergency services, please refer the Member to their IEHP Member Handbook, section 3 (How to Get Care), which outlines the process for obtaining a referral.

MediCal - Community Supports
atives that MCPs may offer in place of services or settings covered under the California Medicaid State Plan.
Beginning January 1, 2022, IEHP began offering 11 DHCS Preapproved Community Supports services. Effective July 1, 2023,
3 additional services were added. Please click on the service for additional details.
Asthma Remediation
Environmental Asthma Trigger Remediations are physical modifications to a home environment that are necessary to ensure the health, welfare, and safety of the individual, or enable the individual to function in the home and without which acute asthma episodes could result in the need for emergency services and hospitalization.
Community Transition Services/Nursing Facility Transition to a Home
Assist members to live in the community and avoid further institutionalization. These services are non-recurring set-up expenses for individuals who are transitioning from a licensed facility to a living arrangement in a private residence where the person is directly responsible for his or her own living expenses.
Environmental Accessibility Adaptations (Home Modifications)
Environmental Accessibility Adaptations (EAAs also known as Home Modifications) are physical adaptations to a home that are necessary to ensure the health, welfare, and safety of the individual, or enable the individual to function with greater independence in the home: without which the Member would require institutionalization.
Housing Deposits
Housing Deposits assist with identifying, coordinating, securing, or funding one-time services and modifications necessary to enable a person to establish a basic household that do not constitute room and board.
Housing Tenancy & Sustaining Services
This service provides tenancy and sustaining services, with a goal of maintaining safe and stable tenancy once housing is secured.
Housing Transition Navigation Services
Housing transition services assist Members with obtaining housing.
Medically Supportive Food/Meals/Medically Tailored Meals
Malnutrition and poor nutrition can lead to devastating health outcomes, higher utilization, and increased costs, particularly among Members with chronic conditions. Meals help individuals achieve their nutrition goals at critical times to help them regain and maintain their health. Results include improved Member health outcomes, lower hospital readmission rates, a well-maintained nutritional health status, and increased Member satisfaction.
Nursing Facility Transition/Diversion to Assisted Living Facilities
Nursing Facility Transition/Diversion services assist individuals to live in the community and/or avoid institutionalization when possible. The goal is to both facilitate nursing facility transition back into a home-like, community setting and/or prevent skilled nursing admissions for Members with an imminent need for nursing facility level of care (LOC). Individuals have a choice of residing in an assisted living setting as an alternative to long-term placement in a nursing facility when they meet eligibility requirements.
Recuperative Care (Medical Respite)
Recuperative care, also referred to as medical respite care, is short-term residential care for individuals who no longer require hospitalization, but still need to heal from an injury or illness (including behavioral health conditions) and whose condition would be exacerbated by an unstable living environment. An extended stay in a recovery care setting allows individuals to continue their recovery and receive post-discharge treatment while obtaining access to primary care, behavioral health services, case management and other supportive social services, such as transportation, food, and housing.
Short-Term Post-Hospitalization Housing
Short-Term Post-Hospitalization housing provides Members who do not have a residence and who have high medical or behavioral health needs with the opportunity to continue their medical/psychiatric/substance use disorder recovery immediately after exiting an inpatient hospital (either acute or psychiatric or Chemical Dependency and Recovery hospital), residential substance use disorder treatment or recovery facility, residential mental health treatment facility, correctional facility, nursing facility, or recuperative care and avoid further utilization of State plan services.
Sobering Centers (Riverside County)

MediCal - Medi-Cal Renewal Process
s the Medi-Cal Renewal process, is currently underway across our state. This initiative is the biggest challenge facing the Medi-Cal program in its history.
Up to 400,000 IEHP Members could potentially lose their Medi-Cal coverage if they don't complete the necessary renewal paperwork on time.
The impact on Providers across the entire healthcare system will be significant, potentially resulting in:
Increased use of the emergency department for primary care
Decreased capacity of bed availability
Delays in hospital discharges while awaiting coverage
Increased length of stay for patients with delayed preventative or chronic care
Increased cost of care
Interruptions of ongoing care
However, with every challenge comes opportunities to help our collective health care mission and partnership grow even stronger.
IEHP takes this challenge seriously and we are committed to helping Members keep their Medi-Cal coverage and Providers keep their assigned Members without interruption.
Resources to Help with the Medi-Cal Renewal Process
The following resources for Providers offer more information about the Medi-Cal Renewal process and tools to help your office proactively engage and encourage Members to renew their Medi-Cal coverage on time.

On the first (1st) of each month, IEHP will provide IPAs and County MH Clinics a list of IEHP DualChoice (HMO D-SNP) Members known to be receiving specialty mental health services through the County MH Plans.
IPAs are expected to outreach to these Members and their County MH Clinic Provider, as well as, document their outreach attempts and outcomes as outlined in Policy 25C2, “Care Management Requirements – Delegated IPA Responsibilities.”
IPAs are required to provide data elements specific to this measure, as outlined in Policy 25F1, “Encounter Data Reporting - Medicare MMP Reporting Requirements – IEHP DualChoice (HMO D-SNP)" and Attachment, “Medicare Provider Reporting Requirements Schedule” in Section 25.
IEHP, through its Delegation Oversight process, will monitor the IPAs’ compliance with documentation and reporting requirements, as outlined in Policy 25A2, “Delegation Oversight Audit.”
