Maccabi Health Services, known as Kupat Holim Maccabi, is one of the four Health Maintenance Organizations currently active in Israel. It was founded in September 1940 and began operating in August 1941. Since 1995 Maccabi has been operating under the National Health Insurance Law.
Maccabi invests efforts and resources to provide ongoing professional education and to update its physicians on innovations in the realm of medicine, thus enabling Maccabi members to benefit from the most well-informed and advanced form of medical treatment. Maccabi functions on the basis of a decentralized organizational approach. Its six regional centers, including 150 branches and clinics, provide full access to Maccabi Healthcare services for all members throughout the country. These branches provide medical services to members from Kiryat Shmona, Zefat and Nahariya in the north to Beer Sheva, Arad, Mitzpe Ramon and Eilat in the south.
