Kaiser Permanente Home Health agency is geared toward members who rely on assistive devices such as walkers, canes or wheelchairs, and those with health conditions that limit their ability to leave home and necessitate care from skilled nurses or therapists, according to a July 17 news release from Kaiser. 

Launched in April with a team of one nurse and one physical therapist, it has expanded to six healthcare professionals, with plans for further growth to address increasing demand.

Kaiser Permanente operates three locations on Hawaii Island: the Kona Medical Office, the Hilo Clinic and the Waimea Clinic. The facilities collectively serve about 31,000 members.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
