About us

Foundation Health Partners (FHP) is an independent health system located in Fairbanks, Alaska. Banner Health successfully operated Fairbanks Memorial Hospital and Tanana Valley Clinic for many years. In 2015, the Fairbanks Hospital Foundation decided that Fairbanksans know what’s best for the Interior and the team embarked on a plan of community owned and operated facilities. Beginning January 1, 2017, Tanana Valley Clinic (TVC), Fairbanks Memorial Hospital (FMH) and Denali Center (DC) became part of Foundation Health Partners, a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Greater Fairbanks Community Hospital Foundation. Foundation Health Partners operates all three facilities through a 15-member Board of Directors. Community owned and now community operated – Foundation Health Partners is dedicated to providing compassionate health care for every chapter in your life story. At Tanana Valley Clinic, Fairbanks Memorial Hospital and Denali Center, our patients and residents are at the heart of everything we do. FMH, TVC, and DC serves the entire interior region of Alaska, an area of approximately 250,000 square miles.
