Bill information
Summary
A bill to amend the Indian Health Care Improvement Act to establish an urban Indian organization confer policy for the Department of Health and Human Services.
Plain-language summary
This bill amends the Indian Health Care Improvement Act, a law governing healthcare for Native Americans. It would require the Department of Health and Human Services to create a policy for how it consults with urban Indian organizations—groups serving Native Americans living in cities rather than reservations. Urban Indian organizations currently receive federal healthcare funding but may lack a formal process to have input on decisions affecting them. The bill is in the engrossed stage, meaning it has passed one and awaits action in the other chamber.
