YOUR TRIBAL CARD IS YOUR TICKET

Federally Recognized Tribe
Tribal Membership / CDIB Card
Illustration only — personal details redacted. Your real card stays private.
Enroll any month of the year
Tribal members can sign up for or switch Marketplace plans once a month, every month — no waiting for open enrollment.
No medical questions
Acceptance is guaranteed. Nobody can be turned away or charged more because of their health history.
Every pre-existing condition covered
Diabetes, heart conditions, cancer, pregnancy — covered from day one, with no waiting periods and no exclusions.
Often $0 a month
After premium tax credits, many tribal households pay nothing per month — and under 300% of the federal poverty level, $0 deductibles and copays too.
Keep your tribal clinic
Your plan works alongside IHS, tribal and urban Indian health care — and adds hospitals and specialists outside the tribal system.
Covers your household
Eligible family members in the same household can qualify for the same year-round enrollment and savings.
*Some ACA plans in some areas have a small one-time enrollment fee due to little or no broker compensation. Agency enrollment fees never apply to Medicare products.

Why Oklahoma tribal citizens enroll
Enroll any month of the year
Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Muscogee, Osage and every other federally recognized Oklahoma tribe qualifies for the monthly Special Enrollment Period.
$0 deductible, $0 copays under 300% FPL
Any Silver plan on HealthCare.gov upgrades to a Zero Cost Sharing variation for eligible AI/AN households.
Layers on top of IHS + tribal clinics
Keep Cherokee Nation Health Services, Choctaw Nation Health Care, Chickasaw Nation Medical Center — insurance just adds specialists and hospitals.
Above 300% FPL — still $0 through IHS
Limited Cost Sharing means $0 out-of-pocket for care received through IHS, tribal, or urban Indian health providers.
No exemption penalty, no prescription tax
AI/AN members are exempt from federal prescription cost-sharing rules and never owe the shared-responsibility payment for Marketplace enrollment gaps.
Whole-family coverage
Non-AI/AN spouses and children in the same tax household still qualify for premium tax credits — the AI/AN member unlocks Zero Cost Sharing for themselves.
Oklahoma eligibility highlights
You likely qualify for AI/AN Marketplace benefits if any of the following describe you or a member of your tax household.
Federally recognized tribal citizenship
Enrolled member of any of the 39 federally recognized tribes headquartered in Oklahoma — Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Muscogee (Creek), Osage, Seminole, Comanche, Kiowa, Ponca, Pawnee, and 29 more.
CDIB card or tribal enrollment card
A Certificate of Degree of Indian Blood or tribal membership/citizenship card satisfies HealthCare.gov's AI/AN documentation request when electronic verification fails.
Household income at or below 300% FPL
Unlocks the Zero Cost Sharing Silver variation — $0 deductible and $0 copays statewide. For 2026, that is roughly $46,860 (individual) to $96,450 (family of 4).
Above 300% FPL — Limited Cost Sharing
Still $0 out-of-pocket when care is received at IHS, tribal, or urban Indian health providers, or via IHS referral to an outside specialist.
ANCSA shareholders + descendants
Alaska Native Corporation shareholders and, in many cases, descendants of enrolled members qualify — call to confirm your documentation.
