Circle of Health is a tribal member benefit program for enrolled members and their descendants under 18 years of age.
Circle of Health is not an insurance company. Circle of Health supplements the Band member’s primary insurance coverage by paying or reimbursing premiums, co-pays, and deductibles for insurance-covered services. One policy per family/household is allowed.
Circle of Health provides additional benefits for specific items such as hearing aids, eyeglasses, orthodontia, and durable medical equipment for enrolled tribal members only. All enrolled members are eligible for Circle of Health benefits no matter where they live.
Circle of Health is the payer of last resort. All other means of health care insurance or third-party payment must be exhausted before Circle of Health will make a payment. All members must apply for alternate resources and remain compliant with such programs.
