The Affordable Care Act  states that:

(1) urban Indian organizations carrying out programs under Title V of the Indian Health Care Improvement Act and

(2) Indian tribes or tribal organizations carrying out programs under the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act

are entitled to purchase coverage, rights, and benefits of the FEHB program for their tribal employees.
