Alaska Partnership Access Line (PAL-PAK)
PAL-PAK is a statewide access line, staffed M-F 7AM-4PM, prioritizing live answer/direct connections to child psychiatrists from Seattle Children's/University of Washington. Any state prescriber role provider can call, without formal enrollment, about any youth in their care. Services include telephone consults, community resource identification, an option for televideo assessments, 2 times a year provider CME events, and downloadable Care Guide for primary care mental health service delivery including rating scales and parent handouts. HelpMeGrow Alaska is the PAL PAK program's local outreach and community resources partner.
