The Yukon-Kuskokwim Health Corporation, commonly referred to as YKHC, is a Tribal Organization that administers a comprehensive healthcare delivery system for 58 rural communities in southwest Alaska.

Each of the communities in our service area is home to a federally-recognized Tribe, whose governing council has authorized YKHC to provide health services on behalf of the federal Indian Health Service (IHS).

YKHC’s healthcare delivery system includes community clinics, sub-regional clinics in five of the area’s larger communities, a regional hospital, dental and optometry services, behavioral health services, substance abuse counseling and treatment, health promotion and disease prevention programs, and environmental health services.

Parents, here are 5 facts about the COVID-19 vaccine, which was recently approved for kids ages 6 months to 5 years.○ Vaccines prevent our children from getting seriously sick or hospitalized if they get COVID-19.○ In our region, where we have many multi-generational homes, vaccinating children as soon as they are eligible protects everyone from baby to grandma.○ Children or infants who have already had COVID should still get vaccinated.○ Children ages 5 and under will get a smaller dose of the vaccines than what is given to older kids and adults.○ With this approval, the COVID-19 vaccine is now recommended for everyone six months and older.If you have questions about the COVID-19 vaccine, a YKHC healthcare provider can answer them for you. To schedule an appointment or ask questions about the vaccine, in villages, call 907-543-6420. In Bethel, call 907-543-6949. ... See MoreSee Less
