DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

Indian Health Service


Notice of Purchased/Referred Care Delivery Area Designation for 
the Little Shell Tribe of Chippewa Indians of Montana

AGENCY: Indian Health Service, HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the Indian Health Service (IHS) is 
establishing the geographic boundaries of the Purchased/Referred Care 
Delivery Area (PRCDA) (formerly Contract Health Service Delivery Area 
or CHSDA) for the newly federally recognized Little Shell Tribe of 
Chippewa Indians of Montana.

DATES: This notice is applicable as of June 22, 2020.

ADDRESSES: This notice can be found at https://www.federalregister.gov. 
Written requests for information or comments submitted by postal mail 
or delivery should be addressed to Evonne Bennett, Acting Director, 
Division of Regulatory and Policy Coordination, Indian Health Service, 
5600 Fishers Lane, Mail Stop: 09E70, Rockville, Maryland 20857.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: CDR John Rael, Director, Office of 
Resource Access and Partnerships, Indian Health Service, 5600 Fishers 
Lane, Mail Stop: 10E85C, Rockville, Maryland 20857. Telephone (301) 
443-0969 (This is not a toll free number).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The IHS currently provides services under 
regulations in effect on September 15, 1987, and republished at 42 CFR 
part 136, subparts A-C. When Tribes are recognized under Federal law, 
either Congress legislatively designates counties to serve as PRCDAs, 
or the Director, IHS, exercises reasonable administrative discretion to 
designate PRCDAs to effectuate the intent of Congress for these Tribes. 
The Director, IHS, publishes a notice in the Federal Register (FR) when 
there are revisions or updates to the list of PRCDAs, including the 
designation of PRCDAs for newly recognized or restored Tribes.
    At 42 CFR part 136 Subpart C, a PRCDA is defined as the geographic 
area within which Purchased/Referred Care (PRC) will be made available 
by the IHS to members of an identified Indian community who reside in 
the area. The regulations provide that, unless otherwise designated, a 
PRCDA shall consist of a county which includes all or part of a 
reservation and any county or counties which have a common boundary 
with the reservation (42 CFR 136.22(a)(6)). Residence within a PRCDA by 
a person who is within the scope of the Indian health program, as set 
forth in 42 CFR 136.12, creates no legal entitlement to PRC but only 
potential eligibility for services. Services needed but not available 
at an IHS or Tribal facility are provided under the PRC program 
depending on the availability and accessibility of alternate resources 
in accordance with the regulations.
    Under Public Law 116-92 (the ``Act''), the Little Shell Tribe of 
Chippewa Indians of Montana was officially recognized as an Indian 
Tribe within the meaning of Federal law. The Act sets forth the service 
area for the newly recognized Tribe for the purpose of the delivery of 
Federal services and benefits to Tribal members. The purpose of this FR 
notice is to notify the public of the establishment of the PRCDA for 
the newly recognized Little Shell Tribe of Chippewa Indians of Montana. 
Consistent with the Act, IHS is designating the counties of Blaine, 
Cascade, Glacier, and Hill in the State of Montana as the Tribe's 
PRCDA.
    Under 42 CFR 136.23, those otherwise eligible Indians who do not 
reside on a reservation but reside within a PRCDA must be either 
members of the Little Shell Tribe of Chippewa Indians of Montana or 
maintain close economic and social ties with the Tribe. The financial 
resources required to meet the immediate needs of the Little Shell 
Tribe of Chippewa Indians of Montana members residing in the PRCDA are 
determined by the IHS, through consultation with the Tribe and will be 
placed in the Billings Area PRC budget.
    This notice does not contain reporting or recordkeeping 
requirements subject to prior approval by the Office of Management and 
Budget under the Paperwork Reduction Act.
