Abstract:

I am pleased to share an update on the status of the exemption of certain Indian Health Service (IHS) positions from the Federal civilian hiring freeze as provided by the Office of Management and Budget's (0MB) guidance memoranda (M-17-171 and M-17-182) for implementing the Presidential Memoranda Regarding the Hiring Freeze. 


I want to thank everyone for sending and sharing copies of your letters and resolutions related to the impact of the Federal civilian hiring freeze on the IHS and our health care delivery system. I shared these with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to illustrate the critical need for an exemption to the hiring freeze to avoid negatively impacting the delivery and quality of health care  within our system.
