Cell Advisory Commission

The AMERIND Board of Directors established the Cell Advisory Commission as a regulatory oversight body for the organization. The Cell Commission is composed of elected representatives from each chartering tribe, the immediate past chairperson of the Board, and two external insurance experts appointed by the Board.

Meeting quarterly, the Cell Commission diligently evaluates each cell using ten (10) annual operational measures and twenty (20) quarterly financial measures. These metrics, crucial for the company’s commitment to fulfilling valid and covered claims in the present and future, are set by the Commission, approved by the Board of Directors, and align with HUD, external industry, and regulatory standards. It’s important to note that the financial condition of non-risk bearing units within AMERIND are not examined by the Cell Commission.

Guided by the provisions of the CELL regulations adopted by the AMERIND Board, the Cell Commission plays a pivotal role in upholding the financial stability and accountability of the organization.
