About Hamakua-Kohala Health - Honoka’a

With coverage spanning from the Hāmākua Coast to North Kohala, we are a unique and tested model for medical care – a true safety net for Hawaiʻi island’s uninsured and medically under-served population. We follow a healthcare model that provides the right care, at the right time, in the most cost-efficient way. This model emphasizes preventive care provided by a consistent patient-centered healthcare team, which includes a physician, nurse practitioner or physician assistant supported by a nurse, medical assistant and clerical staff. The healthcare team is supported by social workers, health educators and behavioral psychologists as needed. The team is able to treat the “whole person,” addressing nutritional, behavioral and social impediments to long-term health.
