Orange County Health Authority's CalOptima OneCare Medicare Advantage plan was served a notice of immediate sanctions by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) on January 24, 2014. The immediate sanctions mean that CalOptima can't market or enroll new members into their OneCare Special Needs Plan until the sanctions are lifted. CMS cited "widespread and systemic failures impacting CalOptima's enrollees' ability to access health care services and prescription medications" as a summary for issuing immediate sanctions.
