Summary
L.A. Care Health Plan is launching 'Preventive Care Connections,' a new provider resource series designed to support Primary Care Physicians in improving preventive care delivery and increasing Annual Wellness Visit completion. The initiative will roll out practical tools and resources over coming months addressing transportation barriers, social determinants of health, member engagement, and compliance topics, culminating in a consolidated toolkit.
Action Required
This is an informational policy announcing a provider support initiative. No immediate billing or operational changes are required. Billing team should monitor for future 'Preventive Care Connections' communications (specifically Connection #1 through #4 and the final toolkit) as they are released over the coming months, as these may contain actionable requirements related to Community Resource Centers, Transportation Benefits, Community Link services, and Balance Billing compliance. When each connection is published, review for any updates to workflows, documentation requirements, or billing procedures.
