Top Quality Providers and Owners
Among WHA's greatest strengths are our top-quality providers. They are among
the best in northern California. They include:
Mercy Healthcare Sacramento (MHS) and
Catholic Healthcare West Medical Foundation (Mercy Medical Group (formerly MedClinic) Medical Group) are divisions of
Catholic Healthcare West,
a large, multi-state integrated health care delivery system. MHS is building
an integrated regional health system that will be a major component of the
broader regional delivery system.
UC Davis Health System represents one of WHA's major providers for primary,
tertiary, and trauma services. The system encompasses the UCD School of
Medicine's clinical faculty, health care professionals of the medical
center and a geographically dispersed network of primary care providers.
NorthBay Healthcare is a non-profit, community organization based in
Solano County. We have a nearly 50-year tradition of providing hospital
and community services that are offered by no other health care provider
in our region. From emergency care to surgery and specialty services
like cancer care and high-risk maternity services, thousands of people
in Solano County rely on NorthBay Healthcare for compassionate care,
advanced medicine and close to home.
Woodland Healthcare
is one of Northern California's first, truly integrated
inpatient and outpatient health care delivery systems. The Woodland Clinic
Medical Group is a partner in the Woodland Healthcare System. The clinic is
the oldest, multi-specialty group practice in California.
Hill Physicians Medical Group
Founded in 1983, Hill Physicians is the
largest independent practice association in the nation serving over
350,000 members in Sacramento, Placer, Alameda, Contra Costa, Solano,
and San Francisco counties. With 2,000 physicians, Hill Physicians offers
access to one of the most extensive medical delivery systems in Northern
California.
Golden State Physicians Medical Group is a group of 350 physicians, about
100 of whom are primary care physicians. The GSPMG physicians are located
throughout the Greater Sacramento region. While the GSPMG is relatively
new, most of its physicians have been in practice in the Sacramento region
for many years. We're sure you will notice some familiar names among their
list of doctors.
Guaranteed Primary Care Access
WHA wants you to receive the care you need when you need it. In most cases,
your primary care physician will be available for urgent visits. But when
that's not possible, we also offer a unique program which ensures access to
another primary care provider for acute medical needs.
Referrals to Specialist- The Advantage Referral Program
To give you more flexibility in choosing a medical specialist, WHA allows you
to access all specialists in our network, rather than only those who have
direct relationships with your primary care physician. Because most of your
care is coordinated by your primary care physician, you will be referred to a
specialist or other health care provider when appropriate.
