  • Receive Apple Health coverage without a managed care plan.

There are advantages and disadvantages to each, depending on your individual circumstances. Tribal health clinic and urban Indian clinic staff are very familiar with these options and can help you make this choice.

Indian health care providers

You can always go to tribal and urban Indian clinics, whether you have Apple Health or not, and you won't have to pay any out-of-pocket costs. You can sign up with the clinic as your primary care provider, whether you're enrolled in an Apple Health managed care plan or you receive Apple Health coverage without a managed care plan. If a tribal or urban Indian clinic can't provide the services you need, they will refer you to a specialist.
