New York's first $76.2 million Rural Community Health Integration application round is closed, but CMS confirmed on September 4, 2026 that approximately $76 million is now being delivered to strengthen rural regional networks, technology-enhanced primary care, workforce training and care coordination. Atlas tracks the next verified New York RHTP funding or procurement opportunity rather than treating implementation funding as a new open application.
Required next actionPre-position for New York's next verified RHTP funding or procurement opportunity. Document rural service geography and access gaps, assemble hospital/FQHC/behavioral-health/public-health/community partnerships, and build implementation-ready concepts around technology-enhanced primary care, telehealth, eConsults, workforce, remote-supported training and cybersecurity. Monitor NYSDOH for the next official notice; do not treat the September 4 CMS implementation announcement as a new open application.
