The HCA employs about 280 people located in Lacey and Seattle. Our employees take pride in helping their fellow state employees and Washington residents get information about health care coverage, and how to keep that coverage. As recipients of state health coverage ourselves, we know that wellness and peace of mind comes from affordable, accessible health care.
Location, location, location
The Lacey office, located in Woodland Square Loop, sits in a park-like setting close to shopping, banking, restaurants, and St. Martin’s University. Lacey employees enjoy free nearby parking. We are close to Intercity Transit (I.T.) stops, and the state provides free unlimited I.T. passes for employees.
The Seattle office, near the corner of Third and Pike, is just blocks from the Pike Place Market, major department stores, and hundreds of small shops and restaurants. Free Metro passes are available to employees who work in the Seattle office.
