Literally no, there's legal precedent to back up this too. The tribes in AK have decent restitution because we proved it was owed by the US government. It doesn't matter how long ago something was, the US government is still around and they still need to pay their debts. Honestly it's a good way to test socialized healthcare and prove it can work on a larger scale.

Try looking at ANTHCs just through IHS.

Our services would be absolute shit without third party payments.
