Obtaining the Knox-Keene license places Clever Care Health Plan on a path to lower health insurance cost, improve access to quality providers, and ultimately serve communities in California.
ARCADIA, Calif. (PRWEB)
July 29, 2020
Clever Care Health Plan Inc. announced today a successful step forward to provide Medicare Advantage services in Southern California by obtaining the Knox-Keene license, an essential regulatory approval to operate a full-service health plan.
“We are grateful for the support given by the California Department of Managed Health Care (DMHC) to our endeavor. The Knox-Keene license will allow us to launch our products this coming Fall season and serve Californians’ health insurance needs,” said Dave Firdaus, CEO of Clever Care Health Plan.
The California DMHC is a regulatory agency that oversees health plan operations and grants health service plan companies with the Knox-Keene license after careful review and compliance of all applicable managed care laws.
“Obtaining the Knox-Keene license places Clever Care Health Plan on a path to lower health insurance cost, improve access to quality providers, and ultimately serve communities in California,” added Firdaus.
Clever Care also received conditional approval from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) in June 2020, and like other Medicare Advantage plans, is expecting final 2021 contract approval in the coming months.
Clever Care’s 2021 service areas will include Los Angeles County, Orange County, and San Diego County with access to over 15,000 provider facilities and more than 30 leading Southern California hospitals.
