Helping to create healthy communities by supporting vibrant and effective community health centers. In 1995, a small group of clinic administrators and clinicians visualized an organization that would see every Alaskan had access to basic health care. Their dream was that despite geographic, financial and cultural barriers, medical under-service would be a thing of the past. That organization would become the Alaska Primary Care Association, and today, Alaska has a network of safety net providers that provide high quality primary care services to more than 90,000 people. Twenty-eight organizations employing over 473 people operate more than 170 clinic sites across Alaska through the Community Health Center system. Those sites serve over 100,000 people each year, providing them with comprehensive, quality primary care. This doesn't take into account all the other safety net providers who provide service without the stabilizing benefit of federal funding, or the growth to come. Since its founding, APCA has grown to serve the 28 Federally Qualified Health Centers throughout the state, other safety net providers and stakeholders. An annual operating budget of over $1 million dollars allows APCA to provide a broad range of member services from technical assistance, policy surveillance and dissemination, to health policy analysis and education, to group purchasing benefits. The work of the APCA cannot be accomplished alone. APCA engages in and fosters strong, mutually supportive partnerships to achieve its goals. APCA pursues the mission through the following focus areas: 1. Strengthen relationships with Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) representatives 2. Provide and promote effective and meaningful communication among Community Health Centers and the PCA 3. Information and policy surveillance and dissemination 4. Board governance as strategy
