Kaiser Permanente is composed of Kaiser Foundation Health Plans (nonprofit, public-benefit corporations), the Permanente Medical Groups (for-profit professional organizations), and Kaiser Foundation Hospitals (a nonprofit, public-benefit corporation).

What makes us unique is our integrated model of healthcare delivery.
We are an integrated health delivery system, which means that we provide and coordinate the entire scope of care for our members, including:
