Building Stronger
Communities
The best way to care for patients with complex issues is to consider their needs holistically. That’s why we work with counties, community organizations and other partners to build innovative programs. Together, we address physical, behavioral, social and long-term health needs. These partnerships foster stronger, healthier communities across our state.
Behavioral Health
The best way to care for people with complex issues is to consider their needs holistically. We adopt this mindset with our members, providers and community partners. In this way, we address not only physical issues, but also behavioral, social and long-term health needs. We do this through our programming and in our partnerships with counties and community organizations.
Homelessness
Health Net bridges the divide between managed care plans, non-profits and county agencies to provide our unhoused members the services they need in new and more effective ways. Health Net also funds necessities like shelter, food and transportation. Together, these efforts help create a safety net that lifts-up our state’s most vulnerable to give them a chance at a better future.
Our wraparound approach also extends to the families and children of our unhoused members. Ultimately, we aim to break the cycle by treating the whole person. Read our fact sheet to learn more about our wraparound approach.
Disaster Relief
When disasters hit our communities, Health Net is there on the ground with financial and staffing support for our partners.
We’ve provided much needed necessities – like cell phones – as well as PPE and local vaccination centers during the COVID pandemic. We were there to fund shelter, food, school supplies and counseling after California’s massive wildfires.
COVID-19 Response
Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Health Net has invested more than $14.5 million to support providers, members and our community.
- Providers: We addressed the needs of providers on the frontline with grants that increased access to telehealth, direct provision of PPE supplies and support for vaccination through education, training to address vaccine hesitancy and a database pilot.
- Members: We supported members through quick deployment of a COVID-19 symptom checker and access to 24/7 virtual care, a homebound program that brought providers to members who couldn’t leave home and vaccine outreach efforts that deployed resources into hard hit communities.
- Communities: We met the increased needs of our communities through direct engagement to address core issues like food bank support, gift cards for essentials and donations to local recovery efforts. We also staffed and deployed our mobile RVs and vaccinated thousands of residents against COVID-19.
