FAQs
+ How do I register?
First you must call KOM at 848-8000 x229 and ask for the American Indian & Alaska Native Healthcare in Hawaii (AIANHH) Program to register for health services. Next, you must fill out a registration form, provide proof of documentation that you or your family members are from a federally recognized tribe, and apply for Med-QUEST.
Whether or not you qualify for Med-QUEST, you must still apply in order to be eligible to receive services under this program, if you do not have health insurance.
+ What do I need to register?
You need to provide a current Hawaii state ID, health insurance card (if applicable), and proof of documentation that you or your family are enrolled members of a federally recognized tribe. This may include a birth certificate, an official letter from your tribal office, a Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) Certificate of Degree of Indian Blood (CDIB) card or a state tribal card.
NOTE: Each individual tribe has their own requirements in demonstrating proof of Indian blood. The BIA does not maintain a national registry and does not conduct genealogical research for the public, so you must contact your tribe for more information. You may refer to the “How Do I Trace Indian Ancestry & Become Enrolled in a Federally Recognized Tribe” brochure also provided by the AIANHH Program.
+ How do I contact my tribe?
You may use the Tribal Leaders Directory online at https://www.bia.gov/bia/ois/tribal-leaders-directory/ or call 848-8000 x229 or toll free 866-428-8001 and ask for assistance from the AIANHH Program.
