Howard A. Kahn, CEO of L.A. Care Health Plan, has announced that he plans to step down in January 2015.

During his tenure, Kahn oversaw the growth of L.A. Care from 700,000 members to 1.6 million. L.A. Care has the largest membership among Medicaid (Medi-Cal) health plans in the United States. Kahn has been with the organization for 13 years.

Most recently, L.A. Care expanded to serve the state marketplace, increased number of Medi-Cal recipients and the members eligible for both Medicare and Medi-Cal (dual eligibles).
