  • U.S. government agencies and some state and local government agencies
  • National voluntary, non-profit, and professional organizations serving the public interest
  • Universities, other educational institutions, and libraries
  • Some commercial resources that provide health information free of charge as a public service.

The site is broken down into seven major categories. Each category contains a series of sub-headings under which you will find links to Internet sites. For example, under the category General Health and Wellness, you will find links to General Consumer Health Sites, Alaska Native & American Indian Health and Wellness Sites, sites on Selecting and Communicating with your Doctor, Medical Library Sites, and Databases of Journal Articles. The major categories appear on the left side of the page and the sub-headings and related text and/or links appear to the right.

Extensive efforts are made to ensure that the Internet sites listed here conform to established selection criteria. However, constant changes in information and in the sites themselves require that the user exercise personal judgment when reviewing information and making decisions.

No Internet site can replace the expertise and advice of a health care provider who has direct contact with a patient. But we hope the health and wellness information this site provides will help you communicate more effectively with your health care providers and, as a result, understand your own situations and choices more fully.
