Mahalo for your generosity and partnership.

Hale Le’a provides the full scope of family practice medicine, treating all forms of chronic and acute illness and injury, including pediatric, adult and senior health care. Our nonprofit also serves as an access point for individual and family mental health services, physical therapy and rehabilitation, nutrition, therapeutic massage, acupuncture, preventive medicine, reproductive and sexual health services including outreach to the LGBTQ community, and women’s healthcare. The clinic provides childhood physicals, vaccinations, and complete pediatric medical services. On the other end of the age spectrum, we treat adult and senior patients with complex medical problems from cancer to heart failure.

Our board and staff are dedicated to providing the care that patients need to improve their health regardless of insurance status or reimbursement rates. However, the rate of uninsured and under-insured patients continues to grow each year, challenging the sustainability of our financial model, and requiring us to adapt to what is quickly becoming a “new normal.” Pre-Covid, 30% of our patients were covered by Medicare, Medicaid/QUEST. In less than three years, the rate of government insured patients has grown to 64%, and another 5% of our patients are completely uninsured.

In the last two years, 25% of private practices in Hawaii have closed their doors. At Hale Le’a, when so few are adapting to the “new normal,” we find it imperative that we do. If you are interested in learning more about our strategies and approach, please contact us and a board member will follow up with you.

We appreciate your support and partnership in this work.

Mahalo,

The Team at Hale Le'a
