Short Abstract:

Provisions for Restoration: Although the urban Indian health programs have lost a number of provisions over the years, the National Council of Urban Indian Health is only advocating for the return of 3 provisions and the creation of one new provision authorizing the appropriation of funds for HIT for Urban Indian Organizations. These provisions would all be included in Title V of the Indian Health Care Improvement Act and would not impact Tribal appropriations as all appropriations for Urban Indian Organizations must come through authorizing language in Title V. Outlined below are the provisions that NCUIH respectfully asks that National Steering Committee recommend for re-inclusion in the Indian Health Care Improvement Act.
