InterSystems, Azalea Health, Self Care Decisions and Solid Starts join the Alliance as members report 34 funding wins across 15 states and new resources support rural care delivery

CLEVELAND, Nov. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Rural Health Transformation (RHT) Alliance today announced four new members and launched interactive Year One and Year Two Reports along with a 50-state resource hub to help rural hospitals and health systems turn transformation funding into better access to care. As states put second-year awards to work under the Rural Health Transformation Program (RHTP), the Alliance is expanding support for providers working to identify state opportunities, assemble delivery partners and build sustainable services for their communities.

"Rural providers need a practical path from a funding opportunity to a service their community can rely on," said Matt Soble, Director of the RHT Alliance. "That requires clinical expertise, technology and implementation partners working to a shared plan. We help providers bring those capabilities together and define how success will be measured, with particular value for hospitals and clinics working with lean teams."

The Alliance's RHTP Year One Report translates the CMS RHTP Obligated Funds Report, published October 8, 2026, into a state-by-state view of reported funding commitments. The Alliance's analysis shows that approximately $4.0 billion, or 40 percent of $10 billion in first-year awards, had been obligated as of July 31, 2026. Obligations represent reported commitments; they do not establish when providers receive payments. The report compares state progress and examines how funds move through regional hubs, grants and other implementation channels.

The Alliance's RHTP Year Two Report analyzes the $10 billion in second-year awards CMS announced November 9, 2026, bringing total awards to $20 billion of the program's $50 billion. The Alliance's analysis shows that Year 2 allocations differ from Year 1 by a combined $68.
