The Molina Story Three Decades of Delivering Access to Quality Care Molina Healthcare’s history and member- focused approach began with the vision of Dr. C. David Molina, an emergency department physician who saw people in need and opened a community clinic where caring for people was more important than their ability to pay. Today Molina Healthcare serves the diverse needs of over 4 million plan members and beneficiaries across the United States through government-funded programs. Molina Healthcare provides NCQA-accredited care and services that focus on promoting health, wellness and improved patient outcomes. We treat everyone like family, just as Dr. Molina did – making Molina Healthcare your extended family.
