About CHP > Our History Community Health Plan came about as a response to the need to improve the funding and delivery of employee healthcare by bringing together employers, physicians, hospitals and the insurance industry to create community-based group health plans. Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula, Salinas Valley Memorial Healthcare System and Monterey County Medical Society played key roles in the development of the plans. In 1994, the not-for-profit Community Healthcare Corporation (CHC) launched a community-based PPO plan for larger employers who could partially self-fund such a plan. An extensive network of physicians and other medical service providers gives plan members unparalleled choice. This was the original Community Health Plan and it continues to be a viable option for larger employers. If insurance coverage is the heart of CHP, its soul is developing and implementing a variety of programs to help plan members achieve optimum health. This focus, together with local governance and plan administration and coordination with physicians, hospitals, other healthcare providers and employers, represents a new, creative and exciting approach to employee healthcare.
