SHARP’s Success To-Date
Need for SHARP-3
Since the inception of the State of Alaska SHARP program the Alaska Native Tribal
Health Consortium (ANTHC, at ANMC) has had four (4) providers participate in the
program; two of the providers received extensions on their loan repayment
program. The ANTHC providers who participated in the program are a Radiologist,
Ophthalmologist, Emergency Room Physician, and Pharmacist.
Continued advocacy on both state and federal levels for any new dollars that can
be allocated to the program to assist employers with funding for interested
applicants resulting in tailored employment packages to increase recruitment efforts
for historically hard-to-fill health care positions.
