FUNDING TYPE

Grant

CAN YOU GET THIS?

This is open to all stages and identities, but you must be operating in rural healthcare or related health tech in the US.

The program is administered by CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) and targets healthcare and health tech organizations focused on rural health transformation. No stage or identity restrictions are listed.

YOUR REAL ODDS

This is a large federal program with $50 billion across five years, but federal CMS grant processes are highly competitive and documentation-heavy.

Specific award counts and selection rates are not published on the overview page. Federal grants at this scale typically involve lengthy review cycles and favor established organizations with compliance infrastructure.

WHAT IT TAKES

Review CMS RHT program eligibility and requirements at the official overview page — 1-2 days
Prepare organizational and compliance documentation required for federal grant applications — 2-4 weeks
Submit application through CMS or designated federal portal — 1-3 days

WORTH KNOWING

This is a one-time submission cycle, so missing the window means waiting for a new program cycle. Monitor the CMS RHT program page directly for application opening dates and guidance documents.
