Maccabi Health Services (Hebrew: מכבי שירותי בריאות, formerly Maccabi Fund for the Ill, Hebrew: קופת חולים מכבי), known as Kupat Holim Maccabi, is one of the four Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs) 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. Membership fees for HMOs in Israel are legally determined and are collected from those entitled to membership by the Institute for National Insurance.
Maccabi’s services are based upon the Israeli National Health Services Basket and the Maccabi Services Basket. Maccabi members can benefit from additional paid coverage through the Additional Health Services. Maccabi has three levels of Additional Health Services on offer: Maccabi Silver, Maccabi Gold, and Maccabi Sheli.
As of 2020, Maccabi Healthcare Services is the second largest Kupat Holim in Israel, with almost 2.4 million members, and is considered an influential institution in regards to the Israeli healthcare system. Maccabi members benefit from diverse health services, using expert personnel in all medical and paramedical fields as well as a network of specialized institutes ho perform diagnostics and treatments, including Assuta. Maccabi’s service methodology is based on free choice of physician.
The Maccabi Committee, chief governing body of Maccabi, holds elections every 4 years.
