Return Reference Explanation
FORM 990, PART III, LINES 4A - 4D I. Introduction A. About Kaiser Permanente Founded in 1945, Kaiser Permanente is recognized as one of America's leading health care providers and nonprofit health plans. We currently serve 12.6 million members in 8 states and the District of Columbia. We were created to meet the challenge of providing American workers with medical care during the Great Depression and World War II, when most people could not afford to go to a doctor. Since our beginnings, we have been committed to helping shape the future of healthcare. Kaiser Permanente exists to provide high-quality, affordable health care services and to improve the health of our members and the communities we serve. Kaiser Permanente's integrated health care model means we seamlessly provide care and coverage together with a wide range of services under one roof, whether in a Kaiser Permanente medical office or hospital, or at a contracted facility. Care for members and patients is focused on their total health and guided by their personal Permanente Medical Group physicians, specialists, and team of caregivers. Our expert and caring medical teams are empowered and supported by industry-leading technology advances and tools for health promotion, disease prevention, state-of-the-art care delivery, and world-class chronic disease management. Kaiser Permanente is dedicated to care innovations, clinical research, health education, and the support of community health.
B. Kaiser Permanente's Approach to Community Health At Kaiser Permanente, we recognize that where we live, work, learn, and play has a big impact on our health and well-being. We are driven by our mission to improve the health of our members and the communities we serve. To be our healthiest we need more than high-quality medical care - we need to improve the conditions for health and equity in the communities we serve. This means addressing all the factors that affect health, such as having a safe place to live, enough money to pay the bills, access to healthy meals, and meaningful social connections. Kaiser Permanente is accelerating efforts to broaden the scope of our work - and ultimately create healthier, more equitable communities for all.
C.Kaiser Permanentes Total Contribution Kaiser Permanente provided $2.8 billion in 2022 to improve the health of our communities. The amounts attributable to Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of the Northwest is $77.5 million as follows: - Financial Assistance at cost - $30.6 million - Medicaid - $34.9 million - Costs of other means-tested government programs - $7.5 million - Community health improvement services and community benefit operations - $4.5 million In addition to our direct spend, we also leverage assets from across Kaiser Permanente to help us achieve our mission to improve the health of communities. This "Total Health" strategy includes our widely recognized activities around supplier diversity, socially responsible investing and environmental stewardship. Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of the Northwest partners with Kaiser Foundation Hospitals to provide health care services and improve the health of the communities we serve.
II.Health Access Ensuring health access means serving those most in need of health care through Medicaid, medical financial assistance, charitable health coverage, and other forms of subsidized care and coverage. It also means connecting people with wrap-around social services, healthy meals, affordable homes, safe playgrounds, and supportive schools. For many low-income people without access to health care coverage, or for those who lose their jobs and can't maintain health care coverage, an emergency room is often the only place they receive care. At Kaiser Permanente, we're working to change that with programs that lower financial barriers by providing deeply subsidized health coverage and medical financial assistance for care. We also provide information about how to access and qualify for public programs such as Medicaid and financial assistance through the marketplace to individuals who may be eligible. Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of the Northwest supports the health access needs of our communities through a combination of coverage and care programs. We provide coverage to low-income populations through our participation in government programs like Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Programs (CHIP) and via our own Charitable Health Coverage (CHC) program, which provides a premium subsidy for Kaiser Permanente coverage for qualified low-income families and children who do not have access to public or private health coverage. Similarly, we provide care to low-income populations through two key vehicles: first, via our treatment of Medicaid and CHIP enrollees, and second, via the Medical Financial Assistance (MFA) program, which is Kaiser Permanente's traditional charity care or financial assistance program (FAP). For Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Inc. and all of its subsidiary health plans, the main way to address health access challenges is by absorbing the cost of the coverage and care programs described above.
A.Coverage Having health coverage means consistent access to comprehensive and continuous medical and preventative services for people to get and stay healthy, a much better alternative to episodic care at emergency departments. Coverage is good for the patient, good for Kaiser Permanente and good for the US overall because it helps people get and stay healthy and avoid costly hospital services. i. Coverage provided through Medicaid, CHIP and other government programs The Affordable Care Act has had a far-reaching impact on the landscape of government-sponsored programs, as these options have become a key source of health coverage for a significant portion of the US population. Kaiser Permanente has responded to this challenge by developing organizational strategies to enable individuals with low incomes to obtain and/or retain health coverage through Medicaid, CHIP or other government programs, even as their personal or financial circumstances may be changing. At the end of 2022, Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of the Northwest was providing coverage to a total of 86,000 people through these government programs. ii. Coverage provided through CHC CHC is a unique approach to caring for low-income uninsured persons in the community. The program provides a premium subsidy for a KFHP off-exchange plan to low-income individuals and families who are not eligible for other public or privately sponsored coverage. Eligible participants receive a regular KFHP membership card and have access to the same services and providers as other KFHP individual and family plan members. CHC members also receive cost sharing support that eliminates out-of-pocket costs for most covered services provided at Kaiser Permanente facilities. CHC provides individuals/families who would otherwise not have access to coverage, consistent access through the "front door" of the health delivery system, including a medical home and preventive services, better alternatives than episodic care. At the end of 2022, Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of the Northwest was providing coverage to approximately 800 people through the CHC program.
B.Care To get and/or stay healthy, people need access to high quality care by providers they trust. This care must include preventative services and required medications so that people can avoid ending up in the emergency room or requiring more extensive services down the line. Kaiser Permanente helps low-income populations gain access to this type of care by leveraging the full scope of its integrated delivery system, including not only critical hospital-based services but also outpatient primary, specialty and pharmacy services. i. Care provided through Medicaid, CHIP and other government programs Kaiser Permanente provides a wide range of health care services to individuals enrolled in Medicaid, CHIP and other government programs, regardless of whether they are assigned to Kaiser Permanente or not. In addition to the individuals who received health coverage in 2022 due to Kaiser Permanente's participation in these government programs, Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of the Northwest also subsidized care to people who are enrolled in these programs but not formally assigned to Kaiser Foundation Health Plan. ii. Care subsidized by MFA Medical Financial Assistance program (MFA) helps low-income, uninsured, and underinsured patients receive access to care. The program provides temporary financial assistance or free care to patients who receive health care services from our providers, regardless of whether they have health coverage or are uninsured. Eligibility for financial assistance is based on financial need. In general, patients whose household income is at or below 300%, and in some regions up to 400%, of the federal poverty limit are eligible for the MFA program. Patients who are experiencing high medical expenses as compared to their income may be eligible under high medical expenses criteria, regardless of household income. The MFA program covers emergency and medically necessary health care services, pharmacy services and products, and medical supplies provided at Kaiser Permanente facilities (such as hospitals, medical centers, and medical office buildings), at Kaiser Permanente outpatient pharmacies, or by Kaiser Permanente providers. Over the course of 2022, Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of the Northwest subsidized care for approximately 17,000 people through the MFA program.
C.Safety-Net Partnerships Safety net providers are a mix of public hospitals, community-based organizations such as federally qualified health centers, and other health care organizations. Safety-net health care providers provide care for patients who have low incomes and/or are uninsured regardless of their ability to pay. In Kaiser Permanente service areas, federally qualified health centers serve the uninsured, Medicaid, and other vulnerable populations. In addition to working families, children, the elderly, and the disabled, health centers serve students, people experiencing homelessness, people living in public housing, agricultural workers, and veterans. Strengthening the safety net advances our mission to improve the health of the communities we serve as well as our equity agenda. Our communities' most vulnerable populations, including a disproportionate number of low-income people of color, rely on the safety net for their health care needs. Our support ensures that communities have access to a strong safety net that can equitably meet patients' needs and improve health outcomes. As we continue to confront COVID-19, ensuring that low-income patients and people experiencing homelessness continue to have access to high-quality health care is more important than ever. Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of the Northwest collaborated with the Oregon Community Foundation to support The Health Systems Access to Care Fund, which was created through a partnership between Kaiser Permanente, Providence Health & Services, Legacy Health, Peace Health, and CareOregon. The Fund provides direct support to community clinics in Oregon and SW Washington that serve uninsured and underinsured people with no other access to care. Safety net clinics, particularly those known as community supported clinics, are often the only source of healthcare for people left out of health insurance programs. Community supported clinics typically serve uninsured and underinsured individuals. The Health Systems Access to Care Fund has shown health systems can work together around a common goal that is addressing community health needs, primarily access to care.
III.Community Health Healthy individuals need healthy communities, and healthy communities need healthy people to thrive. At Kaiser Permanente, we are working to improve the conditions for health and equity in communities by addressing the root causes of health, such as healthy food, economic opportunity, affordable housing, and safe and supportive schools. We screen patients for social factors influencing their health and help connect them to community-based resources and public benefit programs when needed. These improvements grow from our collaboration with each community to co-design and co-create solutions that truly make a positive impact. By engaging communities, our sizeable workforce, and all of our organization's considerable assets, we are working to create communities that are among the healthiest in the nation, and inspiring greater health for America and the world.
A.Economic Opportunity Inclusive economic growth is critical to both individual and community health. When there is a lack of economic opportunity in communities, the prospects for upward social mobility are diminished, often resulting in poorer health and higher mortality rates for people living in those communities. By contrast, economic growth and opportunity provides individuals with jobs, income, a sense of purpose, and opportunities to improve their circumstances overtime. As a large, influential institution in our communities, Kaiser Permanente also recognizes that the way we do business can support economic opportunity in local communities through how we hire, purchase, build our facilities and partner with communities. Some ways that we're helping revitalize and grow our communities by strengthening economic opportunity include: - Providing good jobs to individuals facing barriers to employment through high-impact hiring and workforce pipeline efforts. - Pursuing a social impact investment strategy to support impact investments aimed at addressing key social issues that have a significant impact on health. - Purchasing goods and services from local minority- and women-owned businesses and encouraging good employment practices by our vendor partners. - Building new facilities with an emphasis on positive local community impact, including local construction hiring, local and diverse purchasing, healthy and sustainable design features, neighborhood revitalization, and deep community engagement. - Partnering with community organizations to grow local business capacity, increase access to good jobs, and support stable, quality, affordable housing. Kaiser Permanente is also deepening its efforts to get at the heart of inequities, addressing systemic racism, breaking cycles of trauma, and creating economic opportunities for communities that have endured decades of underinvestment. We are working with communities striving to overcome systemic and structural economic disadvantage and supporting the resiliency of businesses owned by Black and other historically underrepresented individuals. We recognize that it will require sustained efforts to increase access to business capital and build capacity for growth. Success for these communities requires intentional, long-term investment, and ongoing work to dismantle racist systems that create barriers to success. Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of the Northwest supported 4 organizations, the African American Alliance for Homeownership, Central City Concern, Human Solutions, and Partners in Careers to build or enhance place-based financial health ecosystems in the Northwest, implement strategies that allow community partners to embed financial health services at sustainable levels, and demonstrate that financial health outcomes enhance the achievement of community partners' mission-level outcomes. This partnership will also enable these organizations to be better equipped with the right tools and resources to better partner and support communities in the Northwest on a path towards long-term economic security. Populations directly served will include low-income adults and families on cash and housing assistance, veterans, as well as individuals with limited English proficiency.
B.Housing for Health Without a safe place to call home, it's nearly impossible to focus on basic health and medical needs. Kaiser Permanente is leading efforts to end homelessness and preserve affordable housing by making strategic impact investments, shaping policy, and catalyzing innovative partnerships. The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on social health needs in our communities, and people experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity were among the most vulnerable. Even in the absence of COVID-19, people experiencing homelessness face a higher risk of death than housed populations. Increasing affordable housing preserves homes that improve total health and lift residents socially and economically. Nationwide, people of color are disproportionately impacted by homelessness and housing insecurity, further exacerbated by COVID-19. The health crisis and economic fallout from the pandemic have hit low-income and communities of color hardest and threaten to widen the health equity gap in our country even further. Kaiser Permanente cannot solve the affordable housing and homelessness crisis alone. Only through innovative partnerships, strategic investments, and impactful storytelling can we move the needle for our most vulnerable communities. Kaiser Permanente will continue to drive national housing for health initiatives that create more healthy years for all. Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of the Northwest partnered with three organizations across the Northwest to support the Medical Respite Initiative. Medical respite care is a crucial part of the health care continuum for people experiencing homelessness who are often too sick to recover from illness or injury on the streets, but not sick enough to remain in the hospital. Providing medical respite helps people experiencing homelessness to fully recover from their chronic or acute issue that caused them to be hospitalized. Having a safe space to recover instead of going back to the streets decreases the chances of patients being re-hospitalized. Staying at a medical respite site also gives patients the opportunity to obtain wrap-around services, be connected to a case manager, and potentially be placed in permanent supportive housing. Additionally, this initiative will support medical respite providers to meet nationally recognized standards of care and increase readiness to engage in contractual relationships with hospitals and Medi-Cal Managed Care Organizations.
C.Thriving Schools At Kaiser Permanente, we're committed to not only delivering great health care but also creating communities where people can be healthy in all the places they live, learn, work, and play. Thriving Schools brings together Kaiser Permanente's extensive health care expertise and our partnerships with nationally recognized and trusted organizations working to support schools in becoming a beacon of health in their community. Thriving Schools takes an integrated approach to school health, curating the best thinking and guidance on how to keep students, staff, teachers, and families healthy across four dimensions of health: physical health, mental health, social health, and equity and access. Taking an integrated approach to health means supporting schools and districts in advancing their wellness and educational goals by incorporating health-related strategies into school and district improvement efforts. Like the communities in which they sit, schools often reflect a diversity of cultures, beliefs, and experiences. As such, the services and opportunities they provide must ensure that all students and staff are given the opportunity to reach their full potential. Thriving Schools' integrated approach explicitly addresses equity and inclusion, both in the assessment tools we use, and in the resources, we offer for school staff and district leaders. Kaiser Permanente's Educational Theatre has inspired and empowered millions of students and adults in communities across the United States to make healthy choices. Educational Theatre offers a wide range of award-winning theatrical productions and interactive workshops to schools throughout the Kaiser Permanente footprint. Using the power of theatre and storytelling, our programs directly connect with students and adults through relatable characters and real-life situations. Audiences see themselves represented onstage in our culturally and ethnically diverse casts allowing them to connect with the narrative and educational messages in a meaningful way. Our team builds on this connection, inspiring students, and adults alike to make healthy choices and build stronger communities. Currently, there are 3 programs available in every Kaiser Permanente market. Additionally, Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of the Northwest continued its partnership with the Alliance for a Healthier Generation throughout 2022. The partnership will support the Thriving Schools Integrated Approach and Resilience in School Environments which works with school districts in under-resourced communities to implement policy, systems, and environmental changes that will improve the health and well-being of students, staff, teachers, and families. This partnership also aims to reduce stress and burn out of teachers and staff, improve physical health, connectedness, social-emotional skills building, and relationships among students, teachers, staff, families, and community. Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of the Northwest also collaborated with five school districts across Oregon to provide social emotional, mental health and wellness support to students and school officials. School districts will work collaboratively with communities and their student populations to address mental health issues, develop social-emotional learning curriculums, strategically build partnerships with students, community and families that identify as Black/African/African American, and examine mental health and suicide prevention resources and programming available to the district and community. This partnership will strengthen the learning environment of students and provide culturally responsive services.
D.Thrive Local Social determinants of health -- the conditions in which people live, learn, work, and play - affect a wide range of health risks and outcomes. Access to quality health care is critical, but social factors, such as lack of safe housing and transportation, inadequate education or job opportunities, and poor access to good nutrition and physical activity, inevitably create barriers to health and wellbeing. While many social resources may exist in a community, they are often unknown to those most in need and disconnected from one another even when serving the same client, creating confusion and exacerbating stress for community members. Through its Thrive Local program, launched in late 2019, Kaiser Permanente has helped establish connected networks of health and social service providers working together to address the needs of both patients and clients in every community we serve. These networks enable health care providers, safety net clinics, social service agencies, government programs, and other participants to make, receive, and track patient and client referrals. Health care providers can refer patients to organizations that address social factors affecting their health, and social service providers can coordinate effectively among themselves to improve community-wide services. Data aggregated through network technology provides a robust source of information on local social needs and service gaps to drive collaborative community planning. We also use this platform to make a searchable database of tens of thousands of community-based programs and services available directly to our communities to explore. Kaiser Permanente's funding in 2022 facilitated growth of these community networks by making participating in these community networks free to community-based organizations and community clinics, enabling them to collaborate more efficiently among each other and ensuring the networks reflect the needs of their respective communities.
E.Food and Nutrition Security Food for Life is Kaiser Permanente's comprehensive approach to transforming the economic, social, and policy environments connected to food so that people across the nation have access to, and can afford, healthy food. To help address the food needs of its communities, Kaiser Permanente has invested towards the improvement of food and nutrition security and helped with applications for federal nutrition programs like Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and Women, Infants, and Children (WIC). Kaiser Permanente continues to work with community partners to provide free, nutritious meals in low-income communities. In 2022, Kaiser Permanente increased its commitment to food and nutrition security with a pledge to invest $50 million by 2030 to support programs that increase food and nutrition security and improve health outcomes for the country's most vulnerable populations. Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of the Northwest partnered with Meals on Wheels People, Inc. to support the Medically Tailored Meals Program Expansion and Outreach Project. The project will help improve the health outcomes of patients who are facing chronic diseases such as Congestive Heart Failure, Cancer, COPD, Diabetes and Kidney/Renal Disease utilizing the evidence-based best practice Medically Tailored Meals model. This project will also create and implement a Medically Tailored Meals business development plan, expand social programming, and reduced isolation of patients and caregivers and increase equity for those with barriers to service.
IV.Policy and Systems A. Thriving Cities The places where we live, learn, work, and play - our cities and towns, our schools, our homes, our neighborhoods - have an enormous impact on our health. And how we shape those places, through public policy and the support for healthy environments, has the potential to make real, lasting impacts on our surroundings and our everyday quality of life. Through Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of the Northwest's ongoing partnerships with community organizations, municipal leaders, and public health champions, we are working to incorporate health, equity and sustainability considerations into public policy and the built environment in ways that influence how neighborhoods take shape and grow. Since 2018, we have partnered with the de Beaumont Foundation, a leader in public health philanthropy, to help U.S. cities thrive through the CityHealth initiative. CityHealth tracks and reports on proven policy solutions and works with cities to advance policies that achieve community health priorities. Through this relationship, Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of the Northwest leverages its deep expertise in health policy, government relations, and community-based prevention to accelerate cities' efforts to improve people's health and quality of life. The policy menu includes affordable housing trusts, complete streets, earned sick leave, eco-friendly purchasing, flavored tobacco restrictions, greenspace, healthy food purchasing, healthy rental housing, high-quality and accessible pre-K, legal support for renters, safer alcohol sales, and smoke free indoor air. For Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of the Northwest, this partnership complements the organization's established approach to community health - bringing together health leaders, clinicians and community partners to help solve the social, economic and environmental health challenges facing the residents who live in the communities it serves. Additionally, Kaiser Foundation Hospitals continued its support of the Vose River Charitable Fund, an organization established by the de Beaumont Foundation to develop tools and collaborate with other nonprofit organizations and government health departments to support effective policies and the public health workforce. Our ongoing partnership with the Vose River Charitable Fund will ensure the CityHealth initiative continues to have sufficient staffing and consultants, policy-specific technical assistance, policy assessment research and communications support. This alliance will continue to support a new policy menu and greater reach among cities in Kaiser Permanente's footprint.
B.Environmental Stewardship At Kaiser Permanente, we believe it is our responsibility as a health care provider to minimize our environmental impact. We know one way to improve the health of the people who live in the communities we serve is by improving their environmental conditions. We also prioritize partnerships with others to develop policies and systems that strengthen community health and protect the environment. Through innovations in energy use, construction and building strategies, supply chain, food systems, finance, and clinical practice that promote community health, we are leading the health care sector in reducing environmental contributors to disease and illness. We have, and will continue to, set ambitious goals to drive both internal and sector-wide action. We prioritize reducing greenhouse gas emissions to lower our carbon footprint and lower the climate impact on the health of the communities Kaiser Permanente serves. KFH believes that the race to halting climate change is a collaborative one. We prioritize building partnerships and support organizations with shared goals and incentives for combating the causes of a changing climate. We are focused on changing the narrative by putting health at the center of climate change. Kaiser Permanente's mission reflects our belief that where and how people live has a meaningful impact on their health and wellbeing. We will continue to work to improve the conditions for health and equity in the communities we serve by addressing the root causes of health, such as economic opportunity, affordable housing, health and wellness in schools and a healthy environment. We do this by listening to our communities, ensuring health access, shaping policy, making systems change and advancing the future of community health through innovation. In 2022, we also dedicated 32% of overall spending on products to items that met our Environmentally Preferable Purchasing standards and ensured 100% of our overall operations were powered by renewable electricity.
C.Health Professionals Education Our Graduate Medical Education (GME) program provides training and education for medical residents and interns in the interest of educating the next generation of physicians. The program attracts some of the top medical school graduates in the United States and serves as a national model by exposing future health care providers to an integrated health care delivery system. Residents are offered the opportunity to serve a large, culturally diverse patient base in a setting with sophisticated technology and information systems, established clinical guidelines and an emphasis on preventive and primary care. The majority of medical residents are studying within the primary care medicine areas of family practice, internal medicine, ob/gyn, pediatrics, preventive medicine, and psychiatry. In addition to GME, we provide a range of training and education programs for nurse practitioners, nurses, radiology and sonography technicians, physical therapists, post-graduate psychology and social work students, pharmacists, and other non-physician health professionals.
D.Research Kaiser Permanente's research efforts are core to the organization's mission to improve population health, and its commitment to continued learning. Kaiser Permanente researchers study critical health issues such as cancer, cardiovascular conditions, diabetes, behavioral and mental health, and health care delivery improvement. Kaiser Permanente's research is broadly focused on three themes: understanding health risks; addressing patients' needs and improving health outcomes; and informing policy and practice to facilitate the use of evidence-based care. Kaiser Permanente is uniquely positioned to conduct research due to its rich, longitudinal, electronic clinical databases that capture virtually complete health care delivery, payment, decision-making and behavioral data across inpatient, outpatient, and emergency department settings.
V.Pandemic Response It is clear that COVID-19 is now firmly entrenched in our communities and synced to the seasonality of other upper respiratory viruses, such as the flu. Unlike the flu, COVID-19 continues to have an outsized impact on the health of our communities, especially for those that remain unvaccinated. Kaiser Permanente has continued to provide support, both in the form of grants and in in-kind contributions, to increase education around and prevention of COVID-19. In 2022, Kaiser Permanente continued to elevate trusted messenger campaigns in collaboration with community partners to expand public education to individuals and communities at highest risk for contracting COVID-19 in every market. Kaiser Permanente extended support to community partners with initiatives aimed at abating social isolation among elderly individuals and providing community-based organizations with educational materials that could be adapted for flexible use across social media platforms to encourage individuals to get vaccinated or boosted. Kaiser Permanente also provided in-kind personal protective equipment (PPE), cleaning supplies, and hygiene products for community partners to use to safeguard learning and living environments. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted weaknesses in both schools and public health infrastructure. In response to the pandemic, Kaiser led the charge to gather the National Healthy Schools Collaborative in order to strengthen the mental, physical, and socio-emotional health of all school employees and students and, together, launched the "Ten-Year Roadmap to for Healthy Schools." To help rebuild public health infrastructure weakened by the strains of the pandemic, Kaiser Permanente began to collaborate with a coalition of public health and community organizations to develop a public health research agenda that reflects where investments should focus to drive public health improvements.
