The CCRMC COO is responsible for the development and implementation of policies, management, and oversight of clinical and operational measures that will improve and maintain the excellence of health care provided within CCRMC and Health Centers. The CCHP COO is responsible for the development and implementation of policies, objectives, and initiatives for the Health Plan that will attain short- and long-term operational goals. The CCH Vision and Mission At the core of everything we do is delivering health, which means providing access to affordable, convenient and high-quality care-while removing the barriers to embracing healthier behaviors. Contra Costa Health makes good health more attainable for all residents and we maintain a strong focus on equity and eliminating health disparities in our communities. Mission Statement Our mission is to care for and improve the health of all people in Contra Costa County with special attention to those who are most vulnerable to health problems. Contra Costa Health Plan (CCHP) was the first federally-qualified, state-licensed, county-sponsored HMO that currently provides managed care for more than 200,000 people in the county. CCHP is the primary managed-care provider for Medi-Cal beneficiaries in Contra Costa that also manages smaller plans for county employees and In-Home Support Services (IHSS) homecare workers.

CCHP is only one of six Medicaid managed-care plans in California to receive a four-star rating from NCQA. CCHP's strategy is centered around three priorities: * Supporting providers by aligning quality initiatives with what is happening in the provider's office-where quality truly occurs. * Investing in data integration to ensure we could identify true care gaps and move toward Electronic Clinical Data Systems (ECDS) reporting. * Addressing community health priorities, particularly maternal health, behavioral health and preventive care. These priorities allow us to focus on measures that matter most to our members, such as perinatal care, immunizations and patient experience.
