Short Abstract:

The National Council of Urban Indian Health developed a comprehensive transition plan for the first 100 days of the Obama Administration addressing problems and issues confronting American Indians and Alaska Natives living in Urban Centers.

American Medical Student Association Foundation Letter to Honorable members of House Energy and Commerce Committee expressing endorsement of H.R.3200 America’s Affordable Health Choices Act

Journal: NA
Keywords: American Medical Student Association, AMSA, House of Representatives, House, Health Care Reform, H.R.3200, International Federation of Medical Student Associations, IFMSA, preventive care, Affordable Health Care for All, H.R3962, H.R.3590, ACA

Short Abstract:

The American Medical Student Association (AMSA) is pleased to endorse the House Tri-Committee health care reform legislation HR 3200, supporting effective and robust reform. AMSA is the oldest and largest organization of physicians-in-training in the United States, and the international representative organization of American medical students through the International Federation of Medical Student Associations (IFMSA). AMSA represents over 62,000 medical, pre-medical, resident and physicians members.

As future physicians, we see throughout our training the lack of access and affordability our patients must face. All too often, our patients are left without needed medical care, including preventative care, life-saving therapies, and other medical interventions. This is why AMSA recognizes as one of its key Strategic Priorities: Quality, Affordable Health Care for All.

Letter from National Council of Urban Indian Health (NCUIH) to Senators M. Baucus and C. Grassley of the Senate Committee on Finance 11-23-09 (Express Lane Agency)

/in /by

Authors: National Council of Urban Indian Health
Publication Year: 2009

Journal: NCUIH
Keywords: express lane, ncuih, national council of urban indian health, Medicaid, CHIP, Childrens health insurance program

Short Abstract:

The fundamental goal of the Express Lane Agency language is to reduce barriers for enrollment into critical programs such as Medicaid for American Indians and Alaska Natives (AI/ANs). AI/ANs suffer from disproportionately high poverty rates.  Based on the 2000 Census, 25.7 percent of AI/ANs live in poverty in comparison with 12.4% of the general U.S. population. Additionally, in the recently released Census report on health insurance coverage, 31.7 percent of AI/ANs are reported to be uninsured based on a 3-year average (2006-2008).  Despite this high rate of poverty and lack of insurance, AI/ANs are severely under-enrolled in Medicaid and CHIP. The consistent under-enrollment in Medicaid and CHIP has been a topic of frequent discussion in Tribal consultation, testimony to Congress, and policy debates. The reasons for this under-enrollment are numerous and Indian health care providers are uniquely situated to overcome these obstacles.
