Established by Henry J. Kaiser in Honolulu in 1958, Kaiser Permanente Hawaii Region had an initial enrollment of 5,000 members, primarily from employer groups and unions. Today, we deliver quality care and service to approximately 222,000 members. The Region is based on a relationship between the Kaiser Permanente Health Plan and the Hawaii Permanente Medical Group of physicians and specialists, who share a vision of high quality care and services. The Hawaii Region is comprised of a 278-bed medical center and ten outpatient clinics on Oahu. There are also four clinics on the island of Maui — the largest in Wailuku, with smaller clinics in Lahaina and Kihei, and our newest clinic in Maui Lani. The Big Island of Hawaii is home to three Kaiser Permanente clinics: Kona, Hilo, and Waimea. The Hawaii Region is strongly influenced by the unique sense of community in the Islands, where the aloha spirit prevails. Our physicians and staff work together in the pursuit of excellence, with the goal of continuing to improve the lives and health of our Island communities. Kaiser Permanente Hawaii has received an "Excellent" overall rating by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA), the nation's leading reviewer of health plan quality for consumers and employers. "Excellent" is the top rating granted by the NCQA, which reviews satisfaction surveys, preventive measures, physician credentialing, member services and improvement initiatives.* In NCQA's The State of Health Care Quality 2003, our Hawaii plan scored in the top five on clinical measures of quality care. In addition, the Joint Commission, the hospital industry's leading accreditation agency, accredits the Hawaii Region.
