Call to Action from CalOptima Regarding Duals Demonstration

CalOptima is measuring physician interest in a direct contract model for the dual-eligible demonstration that will launch in Orange County in April, 2014. If there are not enough physicians interested in the direct contract model, it may be difficult for the CalOptima board of directors to support the model. See the "Call to Action" below that CalOptima issued to the physician community.

Upcoming CalOptima Provider Forum on Duals Demonstration

The demonstration will entail enrolling the dual-eligible (Medicare/Medi-Cal) beneficiaries in Orange County into CalOptima. OCMA has been advocating that physicians and their dual-eligible patients have multiple options for participating in the demonstration, including an option that allows physicians to contract directly with CalOptima.
