Tribal Self-Governance Advisory Committee
The Indian Health Service Tribal Self-Governance Advisory Committee (TSGAC), which is also comprised of Tribal leaders from each region, provides advice to the IHS Director and assistance on issues and concerns pertaining to Tribal Self-Governance and the implementation of the Self-Governance within the IHS. The TSGAC was established on 23 April 1996.
The TSGAC represents Self-Governance Tribes by acting on their behalf to clarify issues that affect all compacting tribes specific to issues affecting the delivery of health care of American Indian and Alaska Natives. On a quarterly basis, they meet to confer, discuss, and come to consensus on specific Self-Governance issues. Additionally, the TSGAC provides verbal and written advice about Self-Governance issues to the Director, IHS, and the Director, OTSG.
The TSGAC is provided support from a technical workgroup whenever situations warrant further research and review to carry out a policy issue for the Committee.
