The Health Sciences Information Service is the health resources library for most health professionals in Alaska. The fees for most healthcare providers are paid by the organization where they work.  Organizations have an inclusive contract, a deposit account with HSIS or are billed quarterly for services rendered to their employees. Individuals may establish deposit accounts or pay upon request for service.  Non-healthcare providers are also welcome to use the HSIS services and collections for a higher fee. International healthcare providers may also use our services; please note the additional fees.  The fee schedule is given below. To request services, please call, email us, or use our online forms.
