NACDS is offering optional, one-on-one, state-specific support sessions to assist chain members with their Rural Health Transformation Program (RHTP) efforts. Sessions are available every Wednesday, with four 30-minute time slots focused on state-level RHTP pharmacy engagement opportunities.
Interested chain members may schedule a session.
Two major RFP deadlines are approaching for the state's Rural Health Transformation Program infrastructure. The Administrative Services Organization (ASO) RFP application is due June 5 at 5:00 pm MST, with amendment documentation and FAQ guidance available. The Center for Rural Health Sustainability & Innovation (CRHSI) application is available, with a June 12 deadline and is supported by RFP documentation, amendment details, and FAQ resources.
Additional funding opportunities include the Healthy Horizons RFA application due July 2, which focuses on connecting rural communities to specialty, maternal, behavioral health and chronic disease care services. Three new funding streams are scheduled for release: the Rural Health Innovation Fund on June 8, Rooted in New Mexico in mid-to-late June and the Rural Health Data Hub in late June. The program offers ongoing updates through its signup portal for funding announcements and engagement opportunities.
