Health Insurance by AM1090 Listener David

I am a Native Amrican with no health Insurance. I am intitled to receive care through Indian Health Services. But because I do not live on my Reservation (Sauk-Suiattle in Darrington, Washington) or the Puyallup Reservation, all the Heath care I receive is direct care at the Puyallup Tribal Health Authority Clinic. Now I was told by my Health representitve at my Tribe and by a health care worker at the Puyallup Tribe if I use someones adress of someone in the boundries of my Reservation or the Puyallup reservation I would be elageble for Contract care, This would pay for any and all approved care like at a Emergency Room or consultations at a outside facillity such as a Heart Doctor and get stress test and a angiogram done, If do this it would be fraud because I can not actually move but would be fraudulently use a adress I do not live at to get this care level. This is advice from three different Puyallup Tribal Medical care providers and one from my tribe.
