LIBERTY Dental Plan Establishes a Dedicated Toll-Free Number for the Golden Complex Fire in Plumas County and the Park Fire in Butte and Tehama Counties, Issued on July 26, 2024

07/26/2024

On July 26, 2024, Governor Newsom issued a State of Emergency Proclamation for the Golden Complex Fire starting on July 22, 2024, in Plumas County and the Park Fire starting on July 24, 2024, in Butte and Tehama Counties, and has since burned hundreds of acres, prompting evacuation orders for thousands. This fire threatens structures, homes, critical infrastructure, and transmission lines. The high temperatures, dry conditions, and strong wings have increased the fire’s spread, causing imminent threat to life, with a Red Flag Warning in effect for Butte, Plumas, and Tehama Counties.  

LIBERTY has not, as of this date, experienced any disruption to plan operations. Our corporate office and operations center are in Tustin, Calif., and have not been impacted by these Plumas, Butte, and Tehama County fires. Additionally, we do not anticipate any disruption to our operations and will be available to members, including after hours and on the weekend. We are communicating our availability to potentially impacted enrollees through this press release, our website, and social media.

LIBERTY has taken steps to ensure that our members' oral health care needs are met through a dedicated, toll-free number to our call center, including 24/7 call availability to refer members to a dentist. Contact Member Services toll-free at 877-864-7811.

This policy applies in the event of any state of emergency declared by the governor and health emergencies declared by the State Public Health Officer. LIBERTY will comply with guidance issued by the Department of Managed Health Care (DMHC) related to the emergency.
