Cambia was founded more than 100 years ago by timber workers in the Pacific Northwest who came up with the idea to pool a percentage of their wages as a safety net for one another in case of injury or illness. It was this idea of neighbor helping neighbor on which the spirit of Cambia was founded. Today Cambia’s commitment to our community and solving health care consumer problems through innovation were recognized by the Portland Business Journal as Cambia was named the second “Most Admired” health care company, and fifth “Most Admired” across all industries. CEOs and business leaders throughout Oregon chose the most admired companies via survey.
This recognition is a proud moment for Cambia employees, who work hard every day to make health care better for individuals and families. For us, it’s not just a job, it’s personal – inspired by our own families and personal experiences. Learn more about what drives our employee passion:
