Health centers deliver affordable, accessible, quality and cost-effective primary health care to patients regardless of their ability to pay. Health centers have become an essential primary care provider for Alaska'a vulnerable populations. Health centers practice a model of coordinated, comprehensive, and patient-centered care. Alaska Primary Care Association supports 27 Community Health Centers that currently provide medical, dental, behavioral health, substance use disorder, and vision care to over 113,000 patients.

Health centers focus on integrating care for their patients across the full range of services - but also deliver crucial services such as case management, transportation, and health education, which enable vulnerable populations to access care. Alaska's Community Health Centers strive for increasing access to care, improving health outcomes, and reducing health care costs.
