Santa Fe, New Mexico: New Mexico Wins $211 Million Federal Rural Health Transformation Grant
New Mexico will receive $211 million in federal funding to improve health care services in rural communities. According to a November 11 KKOB radio report, the money comes from the federal government's five-year, $50 billion Rural Health Transformation Program, which aims to improve rural residents' access to care, quality and range of services. New Mexico applied for a total of $1 billion under the program, to be paid over five years; the first $211 million has been approved.
The Rural Health Transformation Program is open to all states and focuses on rural communities with relatively weak medical resources, including expanding clinic services, improving referral conditions and broadening telehealth coverage. New Mexico is a vast state where many rural residents must travel long distances for care, and medical shortages have long been a problem. The state government said it will draw up a detailed spending plan under federal requirements to ensure the funds go to the rural areas that need them most, with implementation details to be announced soon.
