SIOUX FALLS, S.D. Insurance enrollment helpers are encouraging Native Americans to sign up for coverage under the nation's new health care law.
Native Americans are exempt from the Affordable Care Act's requirement that people carry insurance.
But ``navigators'' tasked with helping people get insurance say the new law will give Native Americans better access to X-rays, mammograms, prescription drugs and trips to specialists not covered under Indian Health Service.

Oh, and make sure you are registered to vote absentee.
Islamists? Not so much.
I thought First Nations people living on reservations already had free health care?
Doubling down on the American taxpayers. They already have Indian Health Services and now they’ll have BammyCare too. It don’t get no better than that.
What..people are exempt from a law..and a tax ...based on their races?...and this does not violate the 14th amendment????
Native American Nations should establish their own healthcare facilities on their lands independent of the federal government to offer all Americans and/or physicians an alternative to obamacare.

My thought also, I worked on a Indian Health Center for the Morongo Band of Mission Indians in Taxifornia quite a few years ago.
Funny!
Can someone tell me whether current Medicare enrollees are required to apply for new contracts under the A(?)CA?
I still think we should make a list of
Obama-friendly insurance companies,
and try to send sick people there.
No. Medicare remains untouched by this monstrosity except it will go bankrupt sooner because Obama took $500 billion from the “trust fund” to pay for this monstrosity.
Native Americans are exempt from the Affordable Care Act's requirement that people carry insurance... the new law will give Native Americans better access to X-rays, mammograms, prescription drugs and trips to specialists not covered under Indian Health Service."The government never GAVE anybody ANYTHING!" -- John Wayne, "McClintock"
Indian health service? I thought Indian was a bad word.
Native Americans have had “free” government health care for years. That’s why their death rate is so high.
Hey! I’m a native American! ... What ? ...
"You know all that great housing we provided you with? Obamacare's gonna be like that!"
Cheapest gas for miles around too. Everybody stops there.
Next thing you know, they will be setting up a cash clinic for other escapees from ObaMaoCare.
As if they haven't suffered enough at the hands of the U.S. Government.
Where has Obama been for the past 5 years re the Indian Health Service? I saw him have a major powwow at the White House with the leaders of many tribes he was courting for votes.
Looks like the Bureau of Indian Affairs/H&HS didn’t deliver much, did they?
Take they votes and then screw them, just like the white man did for so long, only this time it’s a black man doing it (and no protests). Wonder why?
