Objectives
To enable Federally recognized Indian tribes to enter into agreements that would allow them to assume programs, services, functions, and activities (PSFA) (or portions thereof) that the IHS would otherwise provide for Indians because of their status as Indians. To accomplish this objective, the Indian Health Service (IHS) offers Planning and Negotiation Cooperative Agreements each year for: (1) additional tribes interested in participating in the IHS Tribal Self-Governance Program, and (2) existing Self-Governance Tribes that would like to plan for the assumption of new and/or expanded programs. The Planning Cooperative Agreements allow Tribes to gather information to determine the current types and extent of PSFA and funding levels available within its service areas and to plan for the types and extent of PSFA and funding to be made available to the tribe under a compact. The Negotiation Cooperative Agreements provide Tribes with additional funding to defray costs involved in and preparing to negotiate Self-Governance compacts pursuant to Title V of the ISDEAA.
Eligible applicants
For Planning Cooperative Agreements, any Federally recognized tribe that (1) formally requests, through a governing body action, a Planning Cooperative Agreement for the purpose of preparing to enter the IHS Tribal Self-Governance Program and (2) has furnished organization-wide single audit reports as prescribed by Pub. L. 96-502, the Single Audit Act of 1984, as amended, for the previous three years that contain no uncorrected significant and material audit exceptions. See OMB Circular No. A-133 (June 27, 2003 and June 26, 2007). For Negotiation Cooperative Agreements, in addition to the two criteria listed above, applicants must have successfully completed the planning phase as described at 42 CFR § 137.20.
