SEARHC Joins Mayo Clinic Care Network to Bridge Specialist Tele-Informatics Across Southeast Alaska

SouthEast Alaska Regional Health Consortium (SEARHC) , one of the nation’s largest Native-run non-profit health organizations has formally joined the Mayo Clinic Care Network .

The relationship connects SEARHC clinicians across 26 diverse communities throughout Southeast Alaska directly to Mayo Clinic’s medical knowledge, specialty consults, and digital solutions powered by Mayo Clinic Platform.

The integration directly targets rural and frontier healthcare barriers, enabling patients to receive world-class subspecialty evaluations locally and eliminating costly, disruptive long-distance medical travel away from Alaskan native communities.

Membership in the Mayo Clinic Care Network allows SEARHC physicians and advanced practice providers to retain primary responsibility for patient care while integrating tertiary-level second opinions and clinical protocols directly into local care delivery:

AskMayoExpert: Provides point-of-care clinical decision support offering vetted medical protocols, evidence-based treatment algorithms, and clinical references across hundreds of adult and pediatric conditions.

eConsults (Electronic Asynchronous Consultations): Connects SEARHC primary care and specialty clinicians with Mayo Clinic subspecialists to review complex patient charts, diagnostic imaging, and laboratory workups for formal clinical second opinions without requiring patient travel.

eBoards (Multidisciplinary Video Tumor and Specialty Conferences): Enables SEARHC medical teams to participate in live, scheduled video conferences with Mayo Clinic multidisciplinary panels and peer network physicians to collaboratively evaluate intricate oncology and surgical cases.

Health Care Consulting & Provider Enablement: Grants SEARHC leadership and clinical staff access to Mayo Clinic’s subspecialty domain expertise, patient education assets, and accredited continuing medical education (CME) opportunities.

Dr. Cate Buley, Chief Medical Officer at SEARHC, emphasized the clinical impact on regional care: “For patients across Southeast Alaska, accessing specialized expertise can sometimes require significant travel and time away from home.
