Kaiser Permanente, University of Maryland Medical System Announce Expanded Relationship

University of Maryland’s Capital Region and St. Joseph Medical Centers Set to Become Kaiser Permanente Premier Hospitals

Two of the Mid-Atlantic region’s largest medical systems, Kaiser Permanente and the University of Maryland Medical System (UMMS), are expanding their relationship. Please share this information with your clients and Kaiser Permanente members as our commitment to providing convenient, quality care.

In mid-2022, two UMMS hospitals in Maryland, Capital Region Medical Center in Largo and St. Joseph Medical Center in Towson, will become Kaiser Permanente premier hospitals. These new hospital relationships will add more options for Kaiser Permanente’s 800,000 members across the region to access outstanding hospital-based care from their Permanente physicians.

Since 2018, the UMMS’ Baltimore Washington Medical Center, has been a Kaiser Permanente premier hospital. Capital Region Medical Center will join the Kaiser Permanente premier hospital list in summer 2022, with Permanente physicians providing hospital based medical care. Also, in fall 2022, St. Joseph Medical Center will be added as a premier hospital, with Permanente physicians at this location offering several specialties including but not limited to labor and delivery, cardiology, neurology, urology and orthopedic surgery to Kaiser Permanente members.

With the recently opened Kaiser Permanente Lutherville-Timonium Medical Center as well as the addition of St. Joseph Medical Center in fall 2022, Kaiser Permanente’s members in Baltimore will have even more access to award-winning care provided by Permanente physicians.
