Rhode Island received $156.17 million in FY2026 Rural Health Transformation Program funding and is implementing a five-goal plan spanning rural access, workforce, value-based care, behavioral and maternal health, and technology integration.

Monitor the 14 funded LEAs/schools and Rhode Island agencies for lawful downstream procurements, partner selections and implementation opportunities, including healthcare simulation and clinical-learning technology, while continuing to monitor EOHHS for other RHTP solicitations.
