Plain-English Summary

This bill would strengthen how the federal government works with Native American tribes on health issues that affect their communities. It likely aims to give tribes more say in decisions about healthcare services, funding, and programs that serve Native Americans, rather than having the federal government make all those choices unilaterally. The changes would apply to the Indian Health Service and other federal agencies that provide or fund healthcare for Native American populations.
