What did states have to submit in their RHTP applications?
States had to submit a rural health transformation plan describing how they would use funds across at least three allowable-use categories, the outcomes they would pursue, and how they would administer sub-awards. Plans were due November 5, 2025, with awards announced by December 31, 2025.
The transformation plan
Each state's application centered on a transformation plan: its strategy, chosen use categories, target outcomes, and administration approach for distributing funds.
Key dates
state plans were due November 5, 2025, and CMS announced awardees and first-year allocations by December 31, 2025.
