HCA - CA's Statewide Consumer Assistance Program
February 21, 2012



HCA partners with the California Department of Managed Health Care to launch statewide partnership to help Californians struggling to secure health care coverage.

The Health Consumer Alliance helps consumers by providing comprehensive, local, one-on-one assistance to individuals and families struggling to navigate the complex health care system.

HCA is a network of nine consumer assistance programs operated by community-based legal services organizations and two statewide support organizations.

“The Health Consumer Alliance is very proud of our 14 year history of local and statewide health consumer advocacy and systemic improvement, and we are extremely gratified that the department has chosen us as a partner in implementing their new statewide consumer assistance program,” said Gregory Knoll, Executive Director of the Health Consumer Alliance’s San Diego partner, the Legal Aid Society of San Diego.

The consumer assistance partnership is supported by a federal Affordable Care Act grant. In addition to direct assistance, the Health Consumer Alliance provides information and education about how the health care system is changing under federal health care reform.
