Please see the Dear Tribal Leader Letter from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Secretary Becerra initiating Tribal Consultation to seek input and recommendations on mandatory funding approaches for the Indian Health Service (IHS). To help facilitate your input and recommendations regarding mandatory funding approaches, the HHS would like your input on the following questions and discussion points:
- What is the appropriate funding level for a mandatory funding proposal?
- What is the appropriate growth pattern for a mandatory funding proposal?
- What is the appropriate appropriations structure for a mandatory funding proposal?
Tribal Leaders are invited to two virtual Tribal Consultations to share your input and recommendations on mandatory funding approaches and to discuss these important questions as well as hear your thoughts and concerns.
