The federal government does not require you to have health insurance. There are some states in which there is a requirement so you would have to check with the state that you live in if there is an exemption for Native Americans.
States that have mandates for health insurance
The only places with an individual mandate for health insurance are:
- California
- District of Columbia
- Massachusetts
- New Jersey
- Rhode Island
- Vermont
Qualifying plans, exemptions and penalty criteria differ by state, so it’s important to make sure you know the fine print of your state’s system.
