Clinics, medical groups, and serving areas

IPA / medical group

Allied Pacific IPA

An Independent Practice Association residents in the San Gabriel Valley and East SGV may see on a card or in a directory. The IPA can steer specialist and hospital pathways under an HMO. Listing it is geography, not participation.

Serving area: San Gabriel Valley; East San Gabriel Valley and Pomona

Medical group

Optum

A large regional medical group. Some offices still show a HealthCare Partners history. Affiliation on a sign is not the same as an exact Medicare Advantage contract. Confirm the physician, location, and plan.

Serving area: Central and West Los Angeles; Glendale and Burbank; San Gabriel Valley; East San Gabriel Valley and Pomona; South Bay; Long Beach and Gateway cities

Integrated system

Kaiser Permanente

An integrated system: the medical group, hospitals, and plan generally stay inside Kaiser. That is a different structure from assembling an independent PCP, IPA, and hospital. Neither model is automatically better.

Serving area: Central and West Los Angeles; South Bay; Long Beach and Gateway cities; East San Gabriel Valley and Pomona; Santa Clarita Valley

Health-system clinic

City of Hope (Duarte campus)

A specialty campus in Duarte, not a substitute for a local PCP. People in active cancer or specialty treatment often put this location first. That does not mean every City of Hope clinician accepts every plan.

Location city: Monrovia and Duarte

Serving area: San Gabriel Valley; East San Gabriel Valley and Pomona
