The NCRHTP is a statewide initiative supported by $213 million in federal funding approved by the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. Program funding is designed to address longstanding challenges in rural health care, including workforce shortages, hospital sustainability and gaps in access to mental health and primary care services. Over the next five years, the program will support more than 400 rural health facilities across North Carolina and bring hundreds of millions of dollars in federal investment to the state.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
