Overview of Tribal/Urban Indian Health System
Course Description
Access to health care is essential for people to achieve positive health outcomes. The Indian Health Service (IHS) is an agency within the Department of Health and Human Services that is responsible for providing federal health services to American Indians and Alaska Natives (AI/AN).

This on-demand course is an introduction for providers not familiar with IHS programs and services available to Tribal and Urban Indians in California.
Launch Date: May 23, 2022
