Rural Health in Focus: HR1, Rural Health Transformation Fund, and Impact

September 23, 2025 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM (CDT)

Description

Heart with farm land inside over top of a windmill Join us for webinar exploring the Rural Health Transformation Fund and the HR1 bill, designed for physicians and public health advocates. As part of H.R. 1—the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act”—Section 71401 establishes a Rural Health Transformation Program, allocating $50 billion to support rural healthcare providers. This funding will be distributed over five years, with $10 billion available annually from FY 2026 through FY 2030.

Each state must submit an application including a Rural Health Transformation Plan to access its share of the funds. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) will review these applications based on a pre-determined allocation methodology, issuing final decisions by December 31, 2025.

Participants will gain a clear understanding of the Fund’s goals, the key provisions and logistics of HR1, and the potential implications for physicians, hospitals, and community advocates. 

Objectives:

  • Explain the Rural Health Transformation Fund and its goals. 
  • Build understanding of the HR1 and key provisions and logistics. 
  • Assess implications for physicians, hospitals, and community advocates.

Speakers:  

Annalia Michelman, JD

Senior Attorney at American Medical Association





Emily Carroll, JD
