A Purchased/Referred Care Delivery Area (PRCDA) is a geographic area within which purchased or referred contract health care services are made available by the Indian Health Service to members of an identified Indian community who reside in the area. Unless otherwise designated, a PRCDA consists of a county which includes all or part of a reservation and any county or counties which have a common boundary with the reservation. Residence in a PRCDA by a person who is within the scope of the Indian health program, as set forth in 42 CFR 136.12, creates no legal entitlement but only potential eligibility of services. The boundaries for the 2023 PRCDA are based on the Census Bureau 2023 county and place boundaries and some fields and Federal Register Notices. |

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The Purchased/Referred Care (PRC) Program is for purchased or referred medical or dental care provided outside of IHS or tribal health care facility. The PRC program funds primary and specialty health care services that are not available at IHS or Tribal health care facilities and are purchased from private health care providers. This includes hospital and outpatient care, as well as physician, laboratory, dental, radiology,pharmacy, and transportation services, and durable medical equipment.The PRC funds are used to supplement and complement other health care resources available to eligible Indian people. The funds is used in situations where: (1) no IHS direct care facility exists,(2) the direct care element is incapable of providing required emergency and/or specialty care, (3) the direct care element has an overflow of medical care workload, and (4) supplementation of alternate resources (i.e., Medicare, private insurance) is required to provide comprehensive care to eligible Indian people.The PRC delivery area may from time to time be redesignated within the United States for inclusion in or exclusion from a PRC delivery area.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
