L.A. Care + Health Net Statement on the Decision by LAUSD to Require All Eligible Students to be Vaccinated

Date: 10/06/21

L.A. Care Health Plan and Health Net stand together ready to support the Los Angeles Unified School District's (LAUSD) new effort to help all eligible students get vaccinated against COVID-19 in order to attend in-person classes.

As the two lead Medi-Cal plans serving Los Angeles County, our collective efforts, in conjunction with efforts by our provider and community partners, have provided at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine to more than 55.7% of Medi-Cal enrollees* living in the county – above the statewide average of 52.4% for Medi-Cal enrollees.

While we are pleased with the progress we have made to date, we recognize there is still much work to be done to help eligible members get vaccinated. In response, we are committed to working with our network of providers, local public health agencies, LAUSD, and other community partners to help educate members about vaccine efficacy and make vaccines readily accessible to students and families in Los Angeles County.

* Includes both Medi-Cal Managed Care and Fee for Service members
