The Kaiser Permanente Difference

At Kaiser Permanente, we are relentless in our pursuit of excellence. Driven by our mission to provide the highest quality preventive medicine, we are committed to eliminating health care disparities, and to making lives better through innovation, technology, and research.

Our dedication to delivering the best possible care starts with creating an environment where everyone feels respected and supported – among our members, in our communities, and with each other. We believe that everyone – regardless of circumstance – deserves access to high-quality, affordable care, which further drives our motivation to expand our reach.

Founded 80+ years ago, our unique business model sets us apart — positioning us to drive improvements across industry and around the world. By addressing and embracing the different needs and experiences of those we serve, we create stronger, healthier communities where everyone has an opportunity to achieve their best health. 

Our Business Model

Operating in eight regions across the U.S., with headquarters in Oakland, California, the key to our model's success is having insurance, care providers, and care services all under one roof.
