Tribal Self-Governance Negotiation Cooperative Agreement Program

The purpose of this Negotiation Cooperative Agreement is to provide Tribes with resources to help defray the costs associated with preparing for and engaging in TSGP negotiations.

TSGP negotiations are a dynamic, evolving, and tribally driven process that requires careful planning, preparation,

and sharing of precise, up-to-date information by both Tribal and Federal parties.

Because each Tribal situation is unique, a Tribe’s successful transition into the TSGP, or expansion of their current program, requires focused discussions between the Federal and Tribal negotiation teams about the Tribe’s specific health care concerns and plans.

One of the hallmarks of the TSGP is the collaborative nature of the negotiations process, which is designed to:
1) enable a Tribe to set its own priorities when assuming responsibility for IHS PSFAs; 2) observe and respect the government-to-government relationship between the U. S. and each Tribe; and 3) involve the active participation of both Tribal and IHS representatives, including the OTSG.

Negotiations are a method of determining and agreeing upon the terms and provisions of a Tribe’s Compact and FA, the implementation documents required for the Tribe to enter into the TSGP.

The Compact sets forth the general terms of the government-to-government relationship between the Tribe and the Secretary of the U. S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

The FA:
1) describes the length of the agreement (whether it will be annual or multi-year); 2) identifies the PSFAs, or portions thereof, the Tribe will assume; 3) specifies the amount of funding associated with the Tribal assumption; and 4) includes terms required by Federal statutes and other terms agreed to by the parties.

Both documents are required to participate in the TSGP and they are mutually negotiated agreements that become legally binding and mutually enforceable after both parties sign the documents.

Either document can be renegotiated at the request of the Tribe.
