00:00:00.360 --> 00:00:03.000
Right now there's an
effort to improve the quality

2
00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:06.600
of care, improve outcomes.

3
00:00:07.770 --> 00:00:09.630
Geographic isolation is a challenge.

4
00:00:09.630 --> 00:00:12.420
Many Native American communities
are located in remote areas

5
00:00:12.420 --> 00:00:14.430
that make sort of access

6
00:00:14.430 --> 00:00:16.890
to healthcare facilities a challenge.

7
00:00:16.890 --> 00:00:20.760
But then the, the
facilities that do exist are

8
00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:22.650
that they've got very outdated technology

9
00:00:22.650 --> 00:00:24.510
that the buildings are
not in, in great shape.

10
00:00:24.510 --> 00:00:27.120
And so there is an effort
right now to invest.

11
00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:29.010
And there are, there's money
flowing from the federal

12
00:00:29.010 --> 00:00:30.780
government to improve the facilities.
