Medical Travel and Funeral Assistance
Some of the most difficult decisions to make in health care involve how to pay to access the services you need and where to get help when someone we love passes on. The Medical Travel and Funeral Assistance Program supports the traditional Iñupiat values of compassion, cooperation, and love and respect for one another.
Arctic Slope Regional Corporation and North Slope Borough have granted funds to ASNA to manage the Medical Travel and Funeral Assistance (MTFA) Program. MTFA provides aid to ASRC shareholders and residents of the North Slope Borough in medical or funeral crisis when no other alternative funds are available to pay for such services.
