Oregon Receives Another $197.3 Million for Rural Health Care
The Oregon Health Authority announced on November 10 that Oregon has been awarded approximately $197.3 million in additional federal funding to improve health care access in rural communities. The authority announced the second-year award in Salem, the state capital.
The funding is Oregon's second consecutive annual award through the federal Rural Health Transformation Program. The first round of funding supported more than 300 organizations across Oregon, including rural hospitals, health clinics and community mental health programs.
The authority said the new award will continue support for rural providers and help remote communities sustain medical and behavioral health services, with allocations to follow the program's established process. (Source: Oregon Health Authority)
