About This Location
Walk-In Clinic at ANMC is part of the Alaska Native Tribal Health System — centered on the Alaska Native Medical Center (ANMC) in Anchorage, a 173-bed Indian Health Service-funded hospital jointly operated by the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium (ANTHC) and Southcentral Foundation (a tribally-owned nonprofit serving the Cook Inlet region). ANMC serves Alaska Natives and American Indians statewide (the only tertiary-care hospital in the Alaska Native Tribal Health System) and is internationally recognized for its 'Nuka System of Care' (a patient-centered primary care model). Services include primary care, specialty care, behavioral health, and an emergency department. Beneficiaries include enrolled tribal members and IHS-eligible patients.

Walk-in urgent care is widely available across the region with national chains (MinuteClinic, AFC, Concentra) plus local health system urgent care centers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is eligible to use Alaska Native Medical Center?
ANMC primarily serves Alaska Natives, American Indians, and IHS-eligible patients. Enrollment is based on tribal membership and IHS eligibility requirements. ANMC does not typically serve non-Native patients for routine care.
Can non-Native patients use ANMC in emergencies?
ANMC's emergency department will stabilize any patient in a life-threatening emergency under EMTALA federal law. For non-urgent care, non-Native patients should use Providence Alaska Medical Center, Alaska Regional Hospital, or Anchorage civilian primary care providers.
What is the Nuka System of Care?
Nuka is Southcentral Foundation's patient-owned primary care model, known internationally for high patient engagement and tribal self-determination. Patients partner with integrated care teams (primary care, behavioral health, nurse case manager) for coordinated care. Nuka has won Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Awards.
