✍️ States are racing to win a share of a new $50 billion rural health fund, but the focus is shifting from helping rural hospitals to rebuilding the healthcare system in rural communities.
👉 The program is designed to help states transform their healthcare systems, rather than just providing funding to rural hospitals. 👉 States are required to submit applications by November 5, and the money will be awarded by the end of the year. 👉 The program is expected to have a significant impact on rural healthcare, but some experts are concerned that it may not be enough to address the looming financial catastrophe facing rural hospitals. 👉 The program will be awarded to states based on a formula that calculates each state's rurality, as well as their initiatives and policies that align with the Trump administration's 'Make America Healthy Again' objectives.
