![["A letter from Talley-Walker Hospital and Clinic in Marlow, Oklahoma, to Senator Dewey Bartlett's office regarding a patient, Marie Edwards, who was denied payment for inpatient care at the USPHS Indian Hospital. The hospital claims that the attending physician notified the USPHS of the admission within 24 hours, but the USPHS did not approve the admission or advise transferring the patient. The letter requests assistance in resolving the issue. Senator Bartlett's office acknowledges the letter and refers the case to the Director of Indian Health Service for further action. Marie Edwards also wrote a letter to Senator Bartlett seeking help in getting her hospital bill paid."]](/thumb/CAC_CC_003_2_32_10_0010.jpg "Correspondence Regarding Medical Bill Dispute of Marie Edwards")
![["The document is a letter from Rayna Green to Bryan Michener discussing the importance of the Senate Bill SE522/House Bill 7857 and the Indian Health Care Act. Green emphasizes the need for culturally sensitive Native professionals in the healthcare system and the importance of supporting an American Indian school of medicine. She believes that the development of Indian health care professionals is crucial for addressing the health needs of Native communities. Green also mentions the impact that culturally appropriate training can have on non-Indian health professionals. She expresses regret that a specific project was dropped from the bill but overall sees Titles 1 and 6 as essential contributions to improving Indian health care."]](/thumb/CAC_CC_003_2_32_10_0020.jpg "Letter to Bryan Michener Regarding the Indian Health Care Act")
