Abstract: During the height of the COVID-19 public health emergency (PHE), Congress passed a series of bipartisan relief bills that provided UIOs with additional monetary support. These funding increases from COVID-19 relief allowed UIOs to advance existing programs, invest in infrastructure needs, establish mobile clinics, expand dental health care, hire more staff, and engage in additional outreach efforts. Despite the supplemental funding increases, UIOs remain chronically underfunded, still falling short of meeting the one-year funding amount needed and requested by the National Tribal Budget Formulation Workgroup.
