This bill proposes expanding Minnesota's medical assistance program to cover traditional health care practices provided by Indian Health Service (IHS) facilities, Tribal organizations, and urban Indian organizations. The commissioner of human services must apply for a federal waiver by October 1, 2025, to implement this coverage.

Key provisions include:
- Eligibility Determination: A qualified provider must assess medical assistance enrollees to determine their eligibility for traditional health care practices.
- Qualified Providers: Only practitioners employed by or contracted with IHS, 638 Tribal clinics, or Title V urban Indian organizations can provide these services. Each facility must ensure its providers have appropriate training and experience.
- Payment Structure: Reimbursement for traditional health care practices will follow the outpatient per visit rate set by the Indian Health Service. Payments are limited to one per day per enrollee receiving these services.

The bill aims to integrate traditional healing practices within the state's medical assistance program, ensuring Indigenous communities have access to culturally relevant care.
