Caring for the members of the Tribal community is part of the Native way. Elders and people with disabilities are cherished and cared for with respect and dignity. The staff at Aniwahya Consulting Services understands the challenges Tribes face in working to provide the supports Elders and adults with disabilities need to remain an active part of the community.
In 2010, as part of the Affordable Care Act, the Indian Health Care Improvement Act was permanently reauthorized. One of the biggest resulting changes for Native peoples was the inclusion of long-term care services under Indian Health Services. Tribes have been providing long-term supports to Elders and adults with disabilities for years, however it is only recently that federal changes have enabled Tribes to bill state Medicaid programs for those costs and create the opportunity for Tribes to build comprehensive long-term care programs. Aniwahya has been diligently working on providing Tribal communities and aging programs with the tools needed to be reimbursed for the long-term care services they provide. As part of that work, Aniwahya staff have been working with different federal agencies to provide training materials to Tribes. A sample of those materials can be found to the right.
