COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 2, 2020 – In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Molina
Healthcare of Ohio (“Molina”) is committing $150,000 for the purchase of personal
protective equipment (“PPE”), COVID-19 test kits, as well as other needed essentials to
help protect providers, health care professionals, and those in need during the
coronavirus pandemic that has plagued Ohio and the nation.

“Molina is committed to supporting our health care partners serving on the front line with
needed personal protective equipment and test kits, and providing other essentials
including personal care items, food supplies, diapers, and more to community partners
throughout Ohio,” said Ami Cole, plan president of Molina Healthcare of Ohio. “Molina will
work with Governor DeWine’s administration to help identify community organizations,
hospitals, homecare and hospice providers, homeless shelters, and other facilities in
need of supplies to best serve affected Ohioans immediately.”

In addition to PPE, needed testing kits, and critical essentials in various communities
throughout Ohio, Molina is also identifying partners that require monetary support to help
address COVID-19 emergency needs.

Molina Healthcare of Ohio shares the governor’s commitment to tackling the pandemic
and continues to take the following steps to support his administration’s efforts:
