Kaiser Permanente

Nevada, here we come! Through an agreement with Renown Health, we plan to jointly own and operate a health plan and outpatient care delivery system that will bring Kaiser Permanente and its integrated care and coverage model to northern Nevada in 2026, subject to regulatory approval. Kaiser Permanente and Renown Health – which established the first hospital in Nevada in 1862 – will come together in a strategic relationship with a shared purpose: to provide #ValueBasedCare to more people by improving access and expanding convenient, affordable care options in northern Nevada. http://bit.ly/4mceGcC
