The expansion will double the size of the current network, from its three existing locations to six.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The centers provide healthcare services for Disney cast members, employees, and family members enrolled in eligible company-sponsored medical plans.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAdding three new Centers for Living Well facilities is part of our broader, long-term effort to direct resources where they can make the greatest difference for our employees, now and in the years ahead,\u201d said Eric Chaisson, executive vice president of Total Rewards and Employee Services for The Walt Disney Company.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new Central Florida and Burbank facilities are scheduled to open in 2027. Both locations will offer primary care, an onsite pharmacy, behavioral health services, psychiatry, laboratory services, care management, and physical therapy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Central Florida facility will additionally offer medical fitness, vision, chiropractic, massage, and nutrition services. Disney is still finalizing the available services and opening timeline for the new Anaheim-area center.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1858\" height=\"368\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Living-Well-Premise-Health.png\" alt=\"The Walt Disney Company is expanding its network of employee health centers with three new locations in Florida and California.\" class=\"wp-image-1475601\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Premise Health has operated Disney\u2019s Center for Living Well network since its launch. The first health center and pharmacy opened near EPCOT in 2008. An Anaheim pharmacy followed in 2013, while another health center and pharmacy opened in Celebration, Florida, in 2020.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Disney has also previously collaborated with AdventHealth, a large Florida-based healthcare network, to develop and facilitate healthcare services around Walt Disney World for resort guests and the broader Central Florida community. In 2023, the company shared plans for a<a href=\"https:\/\/wdwnt.com\/2023\/05\/concept-art-new-adventhealth-emergency-room-facility-opening-this-summer-near-walt-disney-world-resort\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" aria-describedby=\"external-link-warning\"> Disney-themed AdventHealth emergency room<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Additional Center for Living Well Benefits<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Disney highlighted the following additional benefits available through the Centers for Living Well:<\/p>\n<p>Personalized, high-quality care: Patients receive more time with providers, allowing for a broader approach to their health and the development of long-term relationships.<\/p>\n<p>Compassionate care: Providers consider a patient\u2019s overall well-being instead of focusing only on an individual symptom or appointment.<\/p>\n<p>Connected digital tools: The secure My Premise Health portal lets patients schedule appointments, contact providers, and review laboratory results.<\/p>\n<p>Coordination with community providers: Center for Living Well teams work with outside healthcare providers to coordinate referrals and continuing care.<\/p>\n<p>Eligibility for employees and families: Services are available to active Disney cast members, employees, and eligible relatives enrolled in qualifying Disney-sponsored medical plans.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on the location, medical and pharmacy services are offered together. Patients are typically seen within five minutes of checking in, and services may be available at a lower cost than other healthcare options. Other available services can include women\u2019s health, behavioral healthcare, physical therapy, medical fitness, nutrition, infusion treatments, and vision care.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What do you think of Disney\u2019s expansion of its employee health centers?
