Our commitment to caring for the whole you—body, mind, and spirit—is based on a long history of dedicated health professionals helping our members and communities live healthier lives. As a health organization in the 21st century, we’ve taken a lead in combining an online medical health records system with quality doctors and healthy living programs. See how we came to be Kaiser Permanente.
Industrialist Henry J. Kaiser and surgeon Sidney Garfield, MD, entered into an unlikely partnership that evolved into a new way of providing health care. Today, Kaiser Permanente is one of America’s leading health care organizations, delivering quality care to more than 8 million members.
With members in nine states and the District of Columbia, we provide quality care through an integrated system, which means our medical team coordinates the entire scope of your care from beginning to end.
When our communities are healthy, we all benefit. That’s why at Kaiser Permanente, social responsibility and community involvement focusing on good health is what we stand for. We’re partners in good health.
