Kaiser Permanente Oakland Medical Center
Kaiser Oakland Medical Center is a hospital located in Oakland, California, at the intersection of Broadway and West MacArthur Boulevard, just north of downtown. It is the first hospital of Kaiser Permanente, the largest managed care organization in the United States, and is operated through its Kaiser Foundation Hospitals division.
The hospital first opened in 1942, after the Permanente Foundation, founded by industrialist Henry J. Kaiser and physician Sidney Garfield, acquired the Fabiola charity hospital.
This was the first modern Health maintenance organization (HMO) hospital after the experiment of using an HMO model was found to be successful among the 90,000 Richmond Kaiser Shipyards workers in the Richmond, California, Field Hospital. Over the years, several additions and renovations have been made to the hospital, including a 12-story, 420-bed tower which opened in September 1972.
