(December 21, 2006) — SCAN Health Plan announced today that Redlands-Yucaipa
Medical Group, Inc. (RYMG) will join the health plan’s physician network,
effective January 1, 2007. As a result, SCAN members will have access to RYMG’s
outstanding primary care physicians and specialists.
RYMG was formed three years ago by local physicians who have practiced in the
area for many years. RYMG physicians have received high scores for patient
satisfaction, and their goal is to provide the best possible service. Beginning
in 2007, SCAN members can choose from 12 RYMG primary care physicians
conveniently located in Redlands, Yucaipa and Banning. The participating
hospital is Redlands Community Hospital.
“We are pleased to have Redlands-Yucaipa Medical Group join our provider
network,” said Tim Schwab, M.D., chief medical officer at SCAN. “The physicians
at RYMG have an excellent, long-standing reputation within the community.”
SCAN is one of California’s fastest-growing senior-focused health plans,
currently serving more than 90,000 Medicare-eligible individuals in Los Angeles,
Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, Ventura and Kern counties. Effective January
1, 2007, SCAN will begin serving members in San Diego County through a
partnership with Scripps Health. In addition, the plan was recently awarded a
three-year contract by the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System to
provide long-term care services in Maricopa County. Further information may be
