FAQ
Questions we hear most.
What is the Rural Health Transformation Program (RHTP) and where does it stand now?
The RHTP is a $50 billion, five-year federal program for rural and underserved care, run through state lead agencies. $10 billion has been granted for Year 1, project scoping and implementation are underway, compliance is looming for recipients, and another $10 billion is being allocated for Year 2.
We just won an RHTP grant. What do we need to do now?
Put grant compliance and reporting in place now: follow the state and federal terms of your award, track how grant funds are spent, document milestones and outcomes, and prepare for required state and CMS reporting. Our RHTP Grant Compliance, Auditing, Analytics & Reporting package is built for this.
What does RHTP grant compliance involve?
In general terms, it means spending funds only on approved uses, keeping documentation that shows how money was spent, meeting milestones in your plan, and reporting outcomes as your state and CMS require. Specific obligations depend on your state's award terms.
What is a mock grant review?
A mock grant review checks your program against your award terms, spending records and milestone evidence before the state or a federal reviewer does, so gaps are fixed early. It is a featured part of our package.
How do we stay audit-ready for RHTP grant funds?
Keep spending records, milestone evidence and outcome data current and organized throughout the year, and run mock grant reviews. Our package maintains those trails so you are prepared when a reviewer asks.
What reporting do RHTP grant recipients need?
Recipients report to their state lead agency, which reports to CMS, on spending, milestones and outcomes. Our package produces those reports on schedule and adds UDS-friendly measures for FQHCs.
How can Year 1 results help us win Year 2 funding?
Another $10 billion is being allocated for Year 2. Organizations that can show measured Year 1 outcomes and clean grant compliance are better positioned. Our analytics and reporting turn your Year 1 data into that story.
