Gov. Evers, DHS Announce Rural Health Transformation Program Grants Open, Encourage Eligible Partners to Apply

"$40 million in grants available as part of an over $200 million investment for rural health" 

Gov. Tony Evers and the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) today announced application materials are now available for several Rural Health Transformation Program [ [link removed] ] grants. This initial application period will distribute $40 million in grant funding to support projects across the state focused on care coordination, community health workers, and dental clinics.

"With healthcare becoming more expensive in Wisconsin and across our country, and as rural communities face challenges keeping hospital doors and lights on, we must continue doing all we can to make sure healthcare is affordable and accessible across our state," said Gov. Evers. "We must connect the dots between transportation, access to high-speed internet, insurance coverage, and so much more of the unique factors that affect healthcare for families and communities in our rural areas. Launching these grants marks a pivotal moment in Wisconsin's work toward removing barriers to healthcare, improving health, meeting folks where they are at, and building sustainable solutions for those who live and work in rural Wisconsin."
