Short Abstract:

NCUIH is anticipating that the IHCIA will be coming to the floor of the Senate early next week or in the weeks there after. There have been some negotiations going on within the Senate leadership regarding how to bring the bill to the floor.

It is becoming more and more likely that we will be seeing an amendment on the floor of the Senate that will eliminate Title V of the bill. This would remove all authority for the Urban Indian Health Program.
