As described in Note 15, “Restructuring and Separation Costs,” we terminated the employment of Dr. J. Mario Molina and John C. Molina without cause in May 2017. In addition, Dr. Molina resigned his board directorship in December 2017, and John C. Molina resigned his board directorship on February 23, 2018.
As of December 31, 2017, we held a receivable of $5 million in connection with the termination of the provider and other services agreements with Dr. Molina’s professional corporation in Michigan. Such agreements are described in further detail in Note 18, “Variable Interest Entities (VIEs).”
Our California health plan has entered into a provider agreement with Pacific Healthcare IPA (Pacific), which is 50% owned by the brother-in-law of Dr. Molina and Mr. Molina. Under the terms of this provider agreement, the California health plan pays Pacific for medical care services that Pacific provides to health plan members. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the amounts the California health plan paid to Pacific Healthcare were insignificant. For 2015, the California health plan paid Pacific approximately $1 million.
