Maine Announces $190.36 Million in Second-Year Federal Rural Health Funding
Maine will receive $190,358,993 in second-year federal rural health funding, Governor Janet Mills' office announced Nov. 11, about $350,000 more than the first year and bringing the two-year total to $380.37 million. The money, administered through the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, supports five state priorities for rural care, from workforce recruitment to hospital sustainability.
State officials said the funding will help rural hospitals and clinics across Maine maintain services amid rising costs. The announcement noted that Senator Susan Collins has proposed a separate five-year, $50 billion national rural health initiative, which state leaders cited as a sign of continued federal attention to rural health care access.
