Michigan Opens $6.43 Million Rural Health Technology Grant Round With November 19 Deadline
The Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity's (LEO) Office of Rural Prosperity announced on November 13 in Lansing a grant opportunity of approximately $6.43 million to modernize digital infrastructure and adopt technology that strengthens care coordination and expands access to care in rural communities. The funding comes from the federal Rural Health Transformation Program funded by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, in coordination with the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services.
Awards range from $50,000 to $700,000. Applications close Thursday, November 19, at 3 p.m. Eastern, and the grant period is expected to run from January 1, 2027, to September 30, 2027. Projects must primarily benefit rural communities under the Federal Office of Rural Health Policy classification and address locally identified needs such as access barriers, care-coordination challenges, data-exchange gaps, administrative burden and workforce limitations. Rural health clinics, health care and social providers, local governments and community-based organizations focused on health-related social needs are eligible; applicants located outside rural areas must document rural beneficiaries and impact.
LEO Director Susan Corbin said the investment will move Michiganders toward equitable access to health care and give rural providers tools to improve care. Beyond the competitive round, the Office of Rural Prosperity will work with statewide partners to direct additional funds to rural hospitals and rural health clinics.
