Who we are ...

The Alaska Rural Telehealth Network (ARTN) is the only telehealth network in Alaska that was created and remains driven by its members.

Our consortium of nine small, rural hospitals and two federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) joined forces with the Alaska Small Hospital Performance Improvement Network (ASHPIN) in a herculean fund raising effort to design and implement a telehealth network to address their communities’ unique clinical and educational needs.

The result is a network of rural health care facilities solely committed to improving access to and the quality of healthcare for all Alaskans.
