IEHP Celebrates Three Decades of Healthcare Services
Inland Empire Health Plan (IEHP) marks its 30th anniversary with a campaign titled 'Caring Together,' highlighting the organization's long-standing commitment to providing accessible and quality healthcare in Southern California. Founded on September 1, 1996, IEHP has grown from serving 62,000 Medi-Cal members through 650 providers to covering approximately one-third of Inland Empire residents—about 1.4 million people today. The campaign includes community events and wellness initiatives like the '30 for 30 Challenge,' encouraging physical activity among members and local partners. IEHP's anniversary efforts emphasize its role in expanding healthcare access through vaccination clinics, telehealth options, and direct service delivery to communities. CEO Jarrod McNaughton noted that IEHP’s mission has always centered on compassion and addressing health disparities. The organization also plans wellness activities at Community Wellness Centers across Riverside, Victorville, and San Bernardino. As a publicly operated Medicaid plan and the largest Dual Eligible Special Needs Plan in the U.S., IEHP remains focused on affordability and community engagement as it moves into its next phase of growth.
