Molina believes every person, family and community deserves access to high-quality health care regardless of their situation. Our mission is to deliver effective, reliable and affordable health care to those who need it most. We strive to meet the physical, social and emotional needs of each member and to strengthen the communities we serve.
We do this by offering a holistic, community-based approach designed specifically to meet the individual needs of our members.
What started in 1980 as one clinic in Long Beach, aimed at addressing the disparities in access to quality health care, has grown into 19 health plans across the country. For over 40-years we’ve been improving the lives of our 5.1 million members across the country by pioneering health care services exclusively for those with government-sponsored health care.
As our membership has grown over the years, so has our commitment to the communities we serve. In 2020, we launched the MolinaCares Accord, which makes substantial investments to improve members’ access to health care.
