Short Abstract:

Honorable Chairman and Committee Members, my name is David Rambeau. I am the president of the National Council of Urban Indian Health and the Executive Director of the United American Indian Involvement in Los Angeles California.  On behalf of the NCUIH, our 36 member clinics, and the 150,000 American Indian/Alaska Native patients that we serve annually, I would like to thank the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs for this opportunity to testify on Advancing Indian Health Care. As we enter into not only a new Congress but also a new Administration it is critically important that reforming and improving the health care delivery system for Native Americans remains a high priority. I would like to thank Senator Dorgan, Senator Murkowski, and indeed the entire Senate Committee on Indian Affairs for all of their hard work on behalf of Indian health. It is my hope that in this new Congress that we can move forward on the critical issues facing the I/T/U system.
