Rural Health Care Program | Healthcare Funding Connection
To maximize your Universal Service Fund Rural Health Care Program funding, you need a Rural Health Care consultant.
The Rural Health Care Program of the Universal Service Fund has a myriad of rules, deadlines, forms and, as is common with most government programs, a lot of waiting. Familiarizing yourself with all the rules and procedures takes valuable time away from more pressing projects.
The Rural Health Care Program has strict rules about:
- Site eligibility (rural / non-rural, for-profit / not-for-profit)
- Service and equipment eligibility
- Competitive bidding requirements and exemptions
- Audits and record keeping
- Timing of application submission and invoicing
Hiring a Rural Health Care Program consultant can relieve you of having to learn all the rules and having to refresh yourself annually. Hiring a Rural Health Care Program consultant may likely result in increased funding for your health care sites.
Our Rural Healthcare Program specialists have years of telecommunications and Universal Service Fund experience. They serve over 300 health care clients with over 1,200 locations. Last year our Rural Health Care Program consultants secured $16 million in funding through the Telecommunications and the Healthcare Connect Fund combined.
