The Indian Health Service (IHS) is the federal health program for American Indians and Alaska Natives, providing comprehensive healthcare services across twelve physical areas in the United States. Each area works closely with a unique group of tribes on a day-to-day basis, offering a range of medical, dental, and behavioral health services.
With a focus on improving the health and wellness of indigenous communities, IHS locations offer patient-centered care, health education programs, and access to resources such as the Affordable Care Act and veteran services. The agency is committed to promoting environmental sustainability, cultural awareness, and collaboration with tribal and urban leaders to address the healthcare needs of Native populations.
