Mission Statement
The mission of the Seattle Indian Health Board is to advocate for, provide, and ensure culturally appropriate, high quality, and accessible health and human services to American Indians and Alaska Natives.
Description
The Seattle Indian Health Board (SIHB) is a private, non-profit 501(c)3 organization incorporated in the State of Washington. We provide community health care and services targeting the urban American Indian and Alaska Native population in the greater Seattle/King County area. We are state-recognized and our ambulatory health care services are nationally accredited through the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care. We have been serving our community since 1970.
Although some services and programs are offered to eligible Native patients only, most primary care services are available to everyone regardless of race, color, sex, national origin, disability, religion, sexual orientation or inability to pay. The Seattle Indian Health Board serves all patients and offers discounted fees to those who qualify. We accept most insurances including Medicaid, Medicare, Children's Health Insurance Program and private insurance.
