About us

Kern Health Systems, known as Kern Family Health Care, was established in 1993 as a managed care health plan, and is the largest health plan in Kern County. Kern Health Systems is committed to providing quality health care to our members. It is important to ensure good health through continuity of care by connecting each member to a provider of their choice within our provider network. Our extensive provider network includes the Traditional and Safety-Net Providers that historically delivered care to Medi-Cal recipients and private providers throughout Kern County and some parts of Los Angeles County. We believe good patient/physician relationships and effective preventive care are true indicators of our success. We also offer a continuum of care that extends beyond doctor visits. With a full range of health education classes and Care/Disease Management programs, we provide quality educational and preventive services to the population we serve. We are able to achieve this through partnerships with our providers and community-based organizations within Kern County. The difference is clear: We hold the standard high when it comes to quality health care for our members. Our Mission: Kern Health Systems is dedicated to improving the health status of our members through an integrated managed health care delivery system. As Kern Health Systems continues to move forward, we will continue to uphold our mission of being dedicated to improving the health status of our members through an integrated managed healthcare delivery system. As the healthcare landscape has been transformed, we will pursue tomorrow with community and provider innovation, enhanced member access, and strengthened member health and wellbeing...Together.

    Kern Family Health Care is a proud sponsor of La Campesina 92.5's, "Cuadrilla de la Semana", or Crew of the Week this year. These events recognize the hard work and dedication of Kern County's agricultural workers and farmers. Each week throughout the summer, various crews are selected and honored during their lunch hour. Together with community partners, we offer valuable information about the services we provide to bridge any gaps in communication between our services and our farmworkers. There’s food, raffles, and giveaways, all aimed at lifting up some of the hardest workers in our community. We are committed to supporting and celebrating the incredible agricultural workers who contribute so much to Kern County.

    Last Thursday was time to gear up for another successful school year in Lamont! We were thrilled to be platinum sponsors of the Greater Lamont Chamber of Commerce's School Supplies and Backpack Giveaway. Thanks to our sponsorship, 720 children walked away with brand-new backpacks and essential supplies. It was a great way to kick off the new #school year!
