We’re continuing to implement a new membership system for customers in Colorado, Georgia, Hawaii, Mid-Atlantic States (DC, Maryland, and Virginia), Oregon, and Washington. This is the continuation of a multi-year investment to replace our current membership systems, which support eligibility and premium billing, with an enterprise-wide, modern solution that will make doing business with us easier.*
As a valued partner, we want to make sure you are aware of the changes your clients will experience and how we’ll keep them informed along the way.
As customers migrate to the system, they’ll experience some important changes. A robust communications plan will help ensure your clients are well-prepared and receive the right messages at the right time. Communication outreach will include emails, letters, robocalls, newsletters, online messaging, and other informational materials that highlight the new benefits they’ll experience.
To help ensure a seamless customer experience, migration will occur in waves. Wave 1 was deployed on April 21, 2025, wave 2 on July 21, 2025, wave 3 on September 22, 2025, wave 3.1 is planned for March 23, 2026, and wave 4 is planned for May 2026. Please be aware that your clients will not all migrate at the same time in the same region: If you have more than one client, they may experience changes at different times.
Clients will migrate from their current Washington Business Portal to business.kp.org. This is Kaiser Permanente’s single online source for managing enrollments, viewing and downloading reports, staying updated on the latest business-related news and announcements, and paying monthly premiums. Tutorial videos highlighting features and functionality are located here or via this User Guide.
Brokers take note: Continue to use the Washington Producer Portal to support your clients. Your introduction to business.kp.org will likely happen next year.
The business.kp.org tools are designed to make group administration fast and easy. In Manage Members, administrators can enroll new members in minutes, download real-time member lists, update demographic information, and order extra ID cards. Manage Payments offers a variety of online payment options, including convenient autopay, comprehensive transaction history, and customizable email notifications. Key group records like SBCs and premium bills are available in the Documents area. Help your clients learn more about the features of Manage Payments in this video.
As your clients migrate, they’ll receive information about when access to the current portal ends and when they can begin using business.kp.org, along with details about how to create an account.
Encourage your clients to make premium payments using the Manage Payments section on business.kp.org. This method is recommended as it’s faster, more efficient, and ensures payments are posted quickly and accurately.
Please note: If a client sets up autopay in Manage Payments during March, automatic payments will not begin until their first bill is generated in April. Therefore, they need to make a one-time payment for the March bill.
If a client is unable to use business.kp.org and will continue to pay monthly premiums via direct bank-to-bank or check, they will be notified before their migration that they are required to update their bank routing (ACH/wire transfer) or check payment information. For your reference:

For customers who receive bills, we are moving to a redesigned, easier-to-read format. For a preview of the changes, consult our helpful reading guide. To ensure premium charges are accurate on our end, your April bill, which covers the May premium, might arrive up to 2 days later than expected.
As part of our ongoing “Go Green!” efforts, we will begin to transition to paperless billing over the next few months. Going forward, your clients' bills and historical records will be available at business.kp.org in Documents and Manage Payments, respectively.
Members not included in a client’s full file will be terminated based on contract guidelines. To ensure accuracy, they must explicitly report any member coverage terminations and requested dates in their eligibility file.
We’re making some updates to the following reporting tools:
As we make this transition, our current systems will require some housekeeping. As a result, clients may experience a brief delay in membership enrollments and payment processing. This will not impact members’ ability to receive care.

*Note: Customers with contracts in California migrated to the new premium billing portion – Oracle Revenue Management and Billing (ORMB) – of the platform in 2021 and 2022.
