APRIL STEWART
Vice President, Access and Innovation
24 Hour Home Care
April Stewart of 24 Hour Home Care has prioritized care for underserved Los Angeles communities throughout her career. Stewart’s accomplishments include leading contracting processes for more than 40 state and Medicaid-funded Home and Community-Based Service Programs that support low-income clients with everyday living in their homes —avoiding placing people in a nursing facility or hospital against their wishes.
Another recent accomplishment by Stewart has been securing contracts with six LA County health plans for in-home services, including L.A. Care, Anthem, Blue Shield Promise, ConcertoCare, Kaiser Southern California and Molina. These contracts cover and impact the lives of more than two million people in LA. In 2022, Stewart developed and launched California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal service lines at 24 Hour Home Care to support the state’s goal of strengthening Medi-Cal to promote a more equitable, coordinated, and person-centered approach to maximizing residents’ health and life trajectory.
