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.

  • Urban Indian Health
    ISSUE BRIEF November 2001 URBAN INDIAN HEALTH Prepared by Ralph Forquera, M.P.H. The Seattle Indian Health Board for The Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The author would like to thank Sima Patel for assistance in obtaining data from the 2000 Census as well as Andy Schneider, Yvette Roubideaux, and Marsha Lillie-Blanton for their review and comments on drafts of this paper. In addition, The Kaiser Commission on Medicaid and the Uninsured (KCMU) is due a special thanks for its funding support and encouragement to undertake this project. Issue Brief: Urban Indian Health Few people realize that the majority of American Indians and Alaska Natives in the United States are now living in American cities, not on reservations. Yet, Federal health care policy toward American Indians and Alaska Natives continues to focus largely on the needs of those living on reservations in rural areas—needs that, despite demonstrable progress since the creation of the Indian Health Service (I.H.S.) in 1955, remain substantial (Kauffman et al., 1997). The purpose of this Issue Brief is to describe the large and growing urban Indian population, their health status, and the major federal health programs (i.e., I.H.S. and Medicare) and federal-state programs (i.e., Medicaid and Child Health Insurance Program) that are available to improve Native Americans’ access to needed health services.1 In setting forth the circumstances of urban Indians, this Issue Brief does not intend to suggest that the health care needs of Indian people living in rural areas are in any way less compelling.
