The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services approved New Hampshire’s spending plan for a large tranche of federal money that will go toward rural health initiatives, state officials announced Thursday.
New Hampshire received roughly $205 million from the federal government late last year through the federal Rural Health Transformation Program and expects to receive similar sums each year until the program concludes in 2030. The program was created by Congress in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act in an effort to counteract other provisions of the massive new law that critics argued would compromise healthcare in rural areas. It distributed money to all 50 states and instructed states to spend the money on long-term transformative solutions to rural health challenges.
