Massachusetts Executive Office of Health and Human Services (EOHHS)
Massachusetts received $162,005,238.13 for the first year of the federal Rural Health Transformation Program. EOHHS says procurements began in summer 2026 and year-one funds subject to procurement are expected to be contracted in fall 2026, so Atlas is tracking the next verified solicitation rather than treating the state award itself as an open grant.
Required next actionJoin the Massachusetts RHTP contact list and monitor EOHHS and COMMBUYS for the next procurement or subaward notice. Pre-position a concise rural project concept tied to one or more state priorities: essential healthcare access, workforce, healthy rural communities, EMS service integration, technology interoperability/connectivity, or facility modernization. Do not assume eligibility or allowable costs until the controlling solicitation is released.
