The Foundation for Medical Care of Kern and Santa Barbara Counties doing business as HealthEdge Administrators (FMC / HealthEdge) works directly with brokers, consultants, general agents and insurance companies to provide the most appropriate healthcare solutions. Unlike many of our competitors, who have a large national presence with multiple locations, FMC / HealthEdge concentrates our efforts in each of the communities we serve. We believe that healthcare is and should be locally based whenever possible and all of our programs and services support this philosophy.
Our strong focus in our communities results in greater cooperation among all parties and thus, more effective management of all aspects of healthcare delivery. More than 50 years ago, Foundation for Medical Care (FMC) began as a physician network organization offering third-party claims administration for Kern and Santa Barbara Counties. Today, FMC / HealthEdge is a full-service healthcare organization, providing healthcare services throughout California and across the nation.
