Transforming Health Care, Strengthening Communities

At Kaiser Permanente, we are dedicated to shaping the future of healthcare. Recognized as one of America’s leading healthcare providers and nonprofit health plans, our mission is clear: to deliver high-quality, affordable healthcare and improve the health of our members and the communities we serve.

Founded in 1945, we proudly serve 12.6 million members nationwide, with more than 600,000 in the Northwest region.

What sets Kaiser Permanente apart is the seamless connection between our doctors, hospitals, and health plans — all working together to keep you at your best. By focusing on preventive care and providing a wealth of health and wellness resources, we help you thrive in mind, body, and spirit.

We believe everyone deserves a safe place to live, nutritious food to eat, clean air to breathe, and financial security. When these basics are lacking, health suffers. In 2024, Kaiser Permanente invested more than $240 million in the Northwest to reduce health disparities, improve access to care for people who don’t have health insurance, and support partnerships in public health to improve health for all. These investments aim to improve the root causes of health, such as having safe housing, nutritious food, gainful employment, supportive schools, mental health supports, and enough money to cover life’s essentials.
