From one easy, familiar search box, found in the upper right corner of all K4Health Web pages, you can access the K4Health Custom Search interface that is powered by a special Google search solution to find the health information you need.

As a default, when you enter a search term(s) in the search box, you will obtain search results from the entire K4Health website. But from anywhere on our site, you can execute a more targeted search–without having to re-enter your search terms–by selecting one of our specialized resource collections from the drop-down menu next to the search box:
