The Alaska Medicare Clinic is at 11260 Old Seward Highway, between O'Malley and Klatt roads.

It is a nonprofit, primary care doctor's office meant to help relieve the shortage of primary care doctors in Anchorage who will take Medicare patients.

A state grant helped get it going.

Reach the clinic, which held its first open house on Friday, at 433-5100.

Providence Alaska Medical Center in January opened a doctor's office for patients 55 and older. Its Senior Care Center is also aimed at providing care to Medicare recipients.
