L.A. Care Health Plan 一致投票任命 Martha Santana-Chin 爲下任首席執行官。
As a Latina leader, the eldest of nine, and the daughter of immigrants whose family relied on Medi-Cal during her childhood, Santana-Chin takes pride in her first-hand understanding of the struggles faced by low-income communities. She has since become a first-generation college graduate and has dedicated her nearly 30-year career to working with the underserved communities of Los Angeles County and other parts of the state.
作爲拉丁裔領袖、九個兄弟姐妹中的長女，以及移民家庭的女兒，Santana-Chin 以自己在童年時期依賴 Medi-Cal 的經歷爲榮，深刻理解低收入社區面臨的困境。她自那時起成爲第一代大學畢業生，並將近 30 年的職業生涯致力於與洛杉磯縣和州內其他地區的未得到服務的社區合作。
Santana-Chin has consistently been at the forefront of healthcare innovation, playing pivotal leadership roles in every stage of California's managed care journey focused on serving low-income populations. She has been instrumental in transitioning these communities into managed care, as the program evolved its focus to care for individuals with complex healthcare needs and, more recently, to address whole-person care by integrating medical, behavioral, and social services. She remains steadfast in her commitment to advocating for equitable access to high quality care and empowering communities to thrive. She succeeds outgoing CEO John Baackes, who successfully guided L.A. Care for nearly a decade and whose impending departure was announced in April of this year.
Santana-Chin 一直處於醫療保健創新的前沿，在加州管理保健旅程的每個階段發揮關鍵領導作用，專注於服務低收入人群。她在將這些社區轉變爲管理保健方面發揮了重要作用，隨着該計劃將重點轉向關愛具有複雜醫療需求的個人，以及最近更多地解決整體人員護理問題，整合醫療、行爲和社會服務。她堅定致力於倡導平等獲得高質量護理，並賦予社區繁榮的力量。她接替了即將離職的首席執行官 John Baackes，後者成功地指導 L.A. Care 近十年，其即將離職的消息於今年四月宣佈。
"I'm deeply honored to be the next Chief Executive Officer of L.A. Care as a representative voice of the people we're serving," said Santana-Chin. "I have a profound sense of responsibility to LA's low-income families and look forward to collaborating with the remarkable team at L.A. Care, its board, and its community stakeholders to continue advancing equity in healthcare."
「作爲洛杉磯保健的下任首席執行官，桑坦納·欽表示，作爲爲我們服務的人民的代表性聲音，我深感榮幸。我對洛杉磯低收入家庭負有深重責任感，並期待與洛杉磯保健傑出團隊、公司董事會和社區利益相關者合作，繼續推動醫療保健領域的公平。」
The Board of Governors considered many qualified candidates, but Santana-Chin emerged as the ideal leader to inspire L.A. Care's community and ensure that the organization continues to bring structure, collaboration, and fairness to LA's complex healthcare landscape. She brings extensive experience in managed care, provider relations, operations, delivery system strategy, network management, value-based care programs, and overall business unit accountability. Her exceptional partnership-building skills, ability to cultivate a high-performing, collaborative culture, and strong team-oriented approach, will be invaluable to the organization's success.

"Martha's passion for expanding access to healthcare combined with her humility, empathy, and commitment to building strong and resilient coalitions made her the clear choice to be our next CEO," said Al Ballesteros, chair of L.A. Care's Board of Governors. "She understands our stakeholders and their unique needs – whether they be our members, providers, local, state and federal regulators, or community advocates."

"This historic appointment of a versatile and dynamic Latina community leader to helm the nation's largest publicly operated health plan bodes well for patients and providers across greater Los Angeles," added Hilda Solis, member of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors and L.A. Care's Board of Governors. "L.A. Care is a unifying force in our community, and I'm confident that under Martha's leadership, we will continue to get Angelenos the care they need, when they need it."
