Kaiser Permanente has a long-standing commitment to helping our members stay healthy. For example, we’ve offered $0 virtual visits for preventive care on most plans for many years, and continue to offer that as a benefit to our members.
Additionally, in accordance with Oregon State Senate Bill 1529 from the 2022 legislative session, Kaiser Permanente will be offering the following benefits upon plan renewal on or after January 1, 2024:
- All members enrolled in Oregon-sitused plans will get their first preventive care visit each year, either virtually or in-person, at $0 cost share.
- All members enrolled in Oregon-sitused plans will also get their first 3 visits each year for primary care or primary care related services at a $5 cost share per visit on most plans.* Here are some important details:
- Plan cost share is $5 for covered services. The deductible will apply for covered services on an HSA-qualified HDHP plan, but will not apply on any other plan type.
- Includes any combination of in-person or virtual care.
- Primary care related services include naturopathic care, and outpatient mental health and substance use disorder treatment.
- This applies only when you get care from Kaiser Permanente facilities/providers or with other in-network providers. This does not apply when you get care from out-of-network providers.
The benefits outlined above apply to all LBG and SBG products for plans sitused in Oregon. Please contact your Kaiser Permanente representative with any questions.
