Health Services Assistance
Help with health-care costs for UKB members. The Health and Human Services page lists eyeglasses and contacts, fuel vouchers for doctor visits, lodging for medical emergencies, medication assistance, payment toward medical services including hospital stays, ambulance rides and appointments, insurance co-pays, and select medical equipment. Services are subject to change.
Who's eligible
Tribal Citizens Only Income Based
The HHS page says the department "assists Keetoowah members" and that "many of its programs require applicants to meet certain income eligibility requirements." The Human Service Assistance application (revised 03/27/2025) asks for the applicant's UKB roll number and district, lists every household member with tribal affiliation and net income, and certifies that "eligibility is based on my/our household income"; applicants with no income or odd-job income complete a notarized statement. Income limits for this program are not published — call HHS.
