Mid-Atlantic Permanente Medical Group

About

Kaiser Permanente's journey began in the 1930s as a response to the needs of workers in the shipyards of World War II. Founded in 1945 by Dr. Sidney R. Garfield and industrialist Henry J. Kaiser, the organization was established with a commitment to providing comprehensive healthcare to its members at a reasonable cost. What started as a simple healthcare model has evolved into one of the nation’s leading integrated health care systems, serving over 12 million members across eight states and the District of Columbia. Through its emphasis on preventive care and evidence-based medicine, Kaiser Permanente has been at the forefront of numerous healthcare innovations. The organization has consistently prioritized patient-centered care, making sure that its members have access to a wide range of services, from primary care to specialty care all under one umbrella. Kaiser Permanente is dedicated to delivering quality health outcomes, promoting wellness, and enhancing the health of communities. As it continues to grow and evolve, Kaiser Permanente remains focused on improving the health of its members and communities through coordinated and connected care.
