Why aren't you getting care?
People put off their check-ups for very real reasons. What's your main reason?
P.S. We don't know who you are, so be honest!
Preventive care is what exactly?
Preventive care is the check-up you get every year even when you're feeling fine. It's a status check of how you feel and how you're doing physically and mentally, outwardly and inwardly.
Commit to scheduling your preventive care for your chance to win a $100 gift card!

Need a doctor? Let's find one!
If you don't have a primary care doctor, you're not alone. It's easier to find one than you might think, and it's so important. (You have a preferred car repair shop, right? Because it helps to have someone who knows your vehicle!)
Go to kp.org/wa.
Filter by "Family Medicine," "Obstetrics and Gynecology," "Pediatrics" or "Optometry," depending on the type of provider you're looking for.
Base Plan HMO is the "Core HMO Network."
Buy-Up Plan PPO is the "Access PPO Network."
Tips
- Look for a doctor close to home or work so scheduling is easier.
- Filter online by gender or languages spoken, or call Kaiser at 888-844-4607 for help finding a doctor of a specific ethnicity/race.
Go to deltadentalwa.com.
Your network is "Delta Dental PPO."
