Reply to comment by Dr_DMT in TIL the number of people who identify as Native American on the US Census increased by 86% from 2010 to 2020. by substantial-freud

I remember there was a time in in the 2000s where you could get group health insurance if you had an ancestor of a certain tribe (usually a grandparent or great grandparent). A lot of people used that to get coverage. IEEE and USAA were another way to get coverage but they all ditched their health insurance around 2010.

You can still get free insurance on healthcare.gov if you are Native American. Most tribes also have free healthcare facilities.
