United States Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Released June 2021, based on the 2020 submission. States that have at least one PRCDA-designated county, grouped by Indian Health Service (IHS) region are: Alaska (Alaska), Pacific Coast (California, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington), Southwest (Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, and Utah), Northern Plains (Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wisconsin, and Wyoming), Southern Plains (Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas), and East (Alabama, Connecticut, Florida, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Maine, Mississippi, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, and Virginia). The percentage of the American Indian/Alaska Native population living in a PRCDA-designated county from 2014–2018 was 53.3% for the United States; by IHS region, these percentages were: Alaska = 100%; Pacific Coast = 60.3%; Southwest = 83.9%; Northern Plains = 54.3%; Southern Plains = 56.7%; and East = 16.8%. ^aRates are per 100,000 people and are age-adjusted to the 2000 U.S. standard population (19 age groups—Census P25-1130). ^bAI/AN race is reported by NPCR and SEER registries or through linkage with the IHS patient registration database. Includes only AI/AN of non-Hispanic origin. ^cThe change in rates was calculated as the total percentage change from the rate in 1999 to the rate in 2018. ^dAAPC represents average annual percent change in rates between 1999 and 2018, calculated using joinpoint regression. *AAPC is statistically significantly different from zero (2-sided p < 0.05)
