Get health coverage at low or no cost to you
If you’re a Hawaii resident without access to other health coverage, you may get high-quality health care through Kaiser Permanente’s Hawaii Health Access Program.
What is the Hawaii Health Access Program (HHAP)?
HHAP is for Oahu and Maui residents who can’t get any other health coverage. HHAP members receive a subsidy to help pay monthly premiums, and do not have to pay copays or out-of-pocket costs for most care at Kaiser Permanente facilities.
