| "All
the incentives
are toward less medical care, because—the less care they give
them, the
more money they make." Ehrlichman: "Edgar Kaiser is running his Permanente deal for profit." Mr. John D. Erlichman quoting Edgar Kaiser to President Nixon on February 17, 1971 |
The Kaiser Papers is an evolving digital library of Kaiser Entities/ Permanente Medical Groups Groups articles and documents in digital form. We provide free access to researchers, historians, scholars, and the general public. We hope that it is of use in understanding the"Why" Health Care in the U.S. is such a big mess. | |||||||||||||

THIS SECTION IS FOR PEOPLE THAT NEED IMMEDIATE INFORMATION. THIS SECTION IS FOR PEOPLE THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN HURT AND NEED LEGAL HELP AND UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT THEY ARE FACING THIS SECTION IS FOR PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT KIND OF A BUSINESS KAISER IS RUNNING AND WHAT THEIR MOTIVATIONS ARE FOR SOME OF THE HORRIBLE THINGS THEY DO. THESE BUSINESS PRACTICES ARE THE CAUSE OF ALL THE GRIEF, THE SUFFERING, THE CONFUSION, THE HARM TO PATIENTS - AS LONG AS KAISER AND THE PERMANENTE MAKES MONEY BY ANY MEANS POSSIBLE THEY ARE ALL VERY HAPPY. The KaiserPapers is an advocacy site opposed to several medical and business practices of Kaiser Permanente. The Kaiser Papers offers personal accounts, allegations, news, links and suggestions for people to obtain information and assistance when they are navigating the health care system. Even though there are many written laws to protect the patients, the purchasers and users of health care and with actual punishments attached to them for the offenders; if the laws are never enforced they are not really laws at all. So while what Kaiser does may be illegal by the books it isn't going to do you much good at all because no one is enforcing the law.  Click on the Image to send an email. Click

HILLARIE LEVY - hillarie643 at aol.com If
you
truly wish to "THRIVE" then
take the time to educate yourself and learn about the Kaiser and Permanente companies that are taking your money. Educate yourself on what they are doing to you. Politely and persistently ask questions if you do not understand what they are telling you or if something doesn't make sense. Hard earned money is being paid to this company to provide medical care for you. You have the right to ask questions or to simply tell them not to touch you until they start providing truthful intelligent answers. TOP RED FLAGS Are you experiencing barriers to care? The following are examples of barriers to care. - “Your doctor is on vacation” - “The manager is in a meeting” - “We’ll get back to you in a few days” - “There are no available appointments” - “We’re too busy” - “Have you spoken to someone in member services?” - “I’m a physician, I have nothing to do with administrative matters” - Do you believe you are receiving quality health care?
