Medicaid provides free or low-cost health coverage to low-income individuals and their families.  In Hawaii, Medicaid is called QUEST Integration.  QUEST Integration is managed by Hawaii’s Department of Human Services’ Med-QUEST Division.



Kaiser Permanente participates in QUEST Integration, which provides health coverage for eligible lower-income, aged, blind or disabled Hawaii residents. If you qualify for QUEST Integration and live on Oahu or Maui, you may be able to choose Kaiser Permanente as your health plan.

 

At Kaiser Permanente, you have a wide network of doctors and specialists to choose from. All of our available doctors accept Kaiser Permanente members with QUEST Integration coverage.
