Indian Health Service 

Tribal Self-Governance Program; 

Planning Cooperative Agreement 

Announcement Type: New. 

Funding Announcement Number: 

HHS–2009–IHS–TSGP–0001. 

Catalog of Federal Domestic 

Assistance Number: 93.444. 

Key Dates: 

Application Deadline Date: June 22, 

2009. 

Review Date: July 6–7, 2009. 

Anticipated Start Date: August 3, 

2009. 

I. Funding Opportunity Description 

The purpose of the Planning 

Cooperative Agreement is to provide 

resources to Tribes interested in 

participating in the Tribal SelfGovernance Program (TSGP), as 

authorized by Public Law 106–260, the 

Tribal Self-Governance Amendments of 

2000, Title V of the Indian SelfDetermination and Education 

Assistance Act, Public Law 93–638, as 

amended (Title V) (25 U.S.C. 458aaa– 

2(e)). There is limited competition 

under this announcement because the 

authorizing legislation restricts 

eligibility to Tribes that meet specific 

criteria (Refer to Section III.1.A., Eligible 

Applicants in this announcement). The 

TSGP is designed to promote SelfDetermination by enabling Tribes to 

assume control of Indian Health Service 

(IHS) programs, services, functions, and 

activities, or portions thereof (PSFAs), 

through compacts negotiated with the 

IHS. The Planning Cooperative 

Agreement enables a Tribe to gather 

information on the current types of 

PSFAs and related funding available at 

the Service Unit, Area, and 

Headquarters levels. 

This program is described at 93.444 in the 

Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance 

(CFDA). 

II. Award Information 

Type of Awards: Cooperative 

Agreement. 

Estimated Funds Available: The total 

amount identified for Fiscal Year (FY) 

2009 is $600,000 for approximately 

eight Tribes. Awards under this 

announcement are subject to the 

availability of funds. 

Anticipated Number of Awards: The 

estimated number of awards to be 

funded is approximately eight. 

Project Period: 12 months. 

Award Amount: $75,000 per year. 

Programmatic Involvement: Planning 

Cooperative Agreements entail 

substantial IHS programmatic 

involvement to establish a basic 

understanding of PSFAs and associated 

funding at the Service Unit, Area, and 

Headquarters levels. 

The IHS roles and responsibilities 

include: 

• Providing a description of PSFAs 

and associated funding at all levels, 

including funding formulas and 

methodologies related to determining 

Tribal shares. 

• Identifying IHS staff who will 

consult with applicants on methods 

currently used to manage and deliver 

health care. 

• Providing applicants with statutes, 

regulations and policies that provide 

authority for administering IHS 

programs. 

The grantee roles and responsibilities 

are critical to the success of the TSGP 

and include: 

• Researching and analyzing the 

complex IHS budget to gain a thorough 

understanding of funding distribution at 

all levels and to determine which 

PSFAs the Tribe may elect to assume. 

• Establishing a process by which 

Tribes can effectively approach the IHS 

to identify programs and associated 

funding which could be incorporated 

into their current programs. 

• Determining the Tribe’s share of 

each PSFA and evaluating the current 

level of health care services being 

provided to make an informed decision 

on new program assumption(s). 

III. Eligibility Information 

1. Eligible Applicants 

To be eligible for a Planning 

Cooperative Agreement under this 

announcement, an applicant must: 

A. Be a Federally-recognized Tribe as 

defined in 25 U.S.C. 450b(e). However, 

Alaska Native Villages or Alaska Native 

Village Corporations are not eligible if 

they are located within the area served 

by an Alaska Native regional health 

entity already participating in the 

Alaska Tribal Health Compact. Those 

Tribes not represented by a selfgovernance Tribal consortium funding 

agreement within their area may still be 

considered to participate in the TSGP. 

B. Submit a Tribal resolution or other 

official action from the appropriate 

governing body authorizing the 

submission of the Planning Cooperative 

Agreement application. Tribal Consortia 

applying for a Tribal Self-Governance 

Planning Cooperative Agreement shall 

submit Tribal Council Resolutions from 

each Tribe in the consortium. Draft 

resolutions, submitted with the 

application, are acceptable in lieu of an 

official signed resolution. However, an 

official signed Tribal resolution must be 

received by the Division of Grants 

Management (DGM), Attn: John 

Hoffman, 801 Thompson Avenue, TMP, 

Suite 360, Rockville, MD 20852, prior to 

the evaluation on July 6, 2009. If an 

official signed resolution is not received 

by July 6, 2009, the application will be 

considered incomplete and will be 

returned without consideration. 

* It is highly recommended that the 

Tribal resolution be sent by a delivery 

method that includes proof of receipt. 

C. Demonstrate, for three fiscal years, 

financial stability and financial 

management capability, which is 

defined as no uncorrected significant 

and material audit exceptions in the 

required annual audit of the Indian 

Tribe’s self-determination contracts or 

self-governance funding agreements 

with any Federal agency. Applicants are 

required to submit annual audit reports 

for the three fiscal years prior to the year 

in which the applicant is applying for 

the planning cooperative agreement. 

The applicants may scan the documents 

and attach them to the electronic 

application. If the applicant determines 

that the audit reports are too lengthy, 

the applicants may submit them 

separately via regular mail by the due 

date, June 22, 2009. Applicants sending 

in audits via regular mail must submit 

two copies of the audits for the three 

previous fiscal years under separate 

cover directly to the Division of Grants 

Management, Attn: John Hoffman, 801 

Thompson Avenue, TMP, Suite 360,
