Type of Grant: Grant
Deadline: 02/19/2025
Size of the Grant: $10,000 to $100,000

Details:
The TSGP allows Tribes to negotiate with the IHS to assume PSFAs, in whole or in part. This gives Tribes the authority to manage and tailor health care programs to best suit the needs of their communities.
Tribes have the flexibility to tailor their health care needs by choosing one of three ways to get health care from the Federal Government for their citizens.
Tribes can choose to:
- Get health care services directly from the IHS.
- Contract with the IHS to administer individual programs and services the IHS would otherwise provide (referred to as Title I Self-Determination Contracting).
- Compact with the IHS to assume control over health care programs the IHS would otherwise provide (referred to as Title V Self-Governance Compacting or the TSGP).
The purpose of this Negotiation Cooperative Agreement is to help Tribes cover the costs associated with preparing for and participating in negotiations to enter the TSGP.
The negotiation process has four major stages:
- Planning
- Pre-negotiations
- Negotiations
- Post-negotiations.
