This section points to another law for the rule barring cost sharing for Indians enrolled in an individual-market qualified health plan through an Exchange. It also makes specified Indian health programs payers of last resort.
(a) For provisions prohibiting cost sharing for Indians enrolled in an individual-market qualified health plan through an Exchange, see section 18071(d) of title 42.
(b) Indian Health Service*, Indian tribes, tribal organizations, and Urban Indian* organizations programs are payers of last resort for services they provide to people eligible through those programs, despite contrary Federal, State, or local law. “Indian tribes,” “tribal organizations,” and “Urban Indian organizations” are defined in section 1603 of this title; this section does not define them.
For provisions prohibiting cost sharing for Indians enrolled in any qualified health plan in the individual market through an Exchange, see section 18071(d) of title 42.
Health programs operated by the Indian Health Service*, Indian tribes, tribal organizations, and Urban Indian* organizations (as those terms are defined in section 1603 of this title) shall be the payer of last resort for services provided by such Service, tribes, or organizations to individuals eligible for services through such programs, notwithstanding any Federal, State, or local law to the contrary.
