Broad Eligibility
Washington rural hospitals participating in the WSHA-administered RHT infrastructure fund. The public WSHA notice confirms hospital applications are underway, while exact applicant, allocation, deadline, and submission requirements remain in member-only application materials and must be confirmed there.
Atlas Analysis
Exceptional technology and infrastructure alignment for rural hospitals because Washington explicitly identifies telehealth, remote patient monitoring, AI, cybersecurity, data platforms, revenue-cycle technology, and related training among intended uses. The principal qualification issue is access to the controlling WSHA member materials, so Atlas treats those materials as mandatory before any organization-specific submission advice is finalized.
Washington’s approved Rural Health Transformation plan establishes Activity 1.3, an infrastructure fund administered by the Washington State Hospital Association for critical technology infrastructure and maintenance needs at rural hospitals. The state proposes approximately $32 million to $42 million per year for investments that can include AI tools, cybersecurity, revenue-cycle management, data and population-health platforms, telehealth and remote patient monitoring tools, related services and training, and qualifying critical facility maintenance.
WSHA publicly confirmed in July 2026 that application materials, instructions, supporting resources, and an RHTP submission portal are live for hospitals. The detailed application materials are member-only, so Atlas does not invent a public deadline or applicant rule that cannot be independently verified. Qualified hospitals should confirm WSHA member access and use the member application package as the controlling source.
