Bill overview
The Tribal Healthcare Careers Act aims to increase healthcare workforce opportunities for Native American communities. It directs the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to set aside 15% of funds from the Health Profession Opportunity Grants program for Indian tribes, tribal organizations, and Tribal Colleges and Universities. The bill also guarantees that HHS will award at least 10 grants to eligible tribal entities, provided there are sufficient applications meeting program requirements. These changes will take effect on October 1, 2025.
