Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Serving American Indians and Alaska Natives in Alabama, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, and Mississippi Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) staff work with beneficiaries, health care providers, state governments, CMS contractors, community groups, and others to provide education and address questions.
American Indians and Alaska Natives If you have questions about CMS programs in relation to American Indians or Alaska Natives:
• email the CMS Division of Tribal Affairs at [email protected], or • contact a CMS Native American Contact (NAC). For a list of NACs and their information, visit https://go.cms.gov/NACTAGlist
To contact Indian Health Service in these states, contact the Nashville Area office at 1 (615) 467–1500 or visit https://www.ihs.gov/nashville/contactus/ Why Enroll in CMS programs? Patients who enroll in CMS programs help support their Indian health care hospital and clinics, their own health, and the health of others.
Patients enrolled in Medicaid, the Children’s Health Insurance Program, or Medicare enable Indian health hospitals and clinics to bill these programs for services provided. These programs bring money into the health care facility, which the facility can then use to hire more staff and pay for new equipment and building renovations. It can also save Purchased and Referred Care dollars for other patients. State-by-State Assistance Find information about coverage and Indian health facilities in your state. The map included in this booklet shows the location of these facilities.
