Deadline: 14-Apr-25
Applications are now open for the Rural Healthcare Provider Transition Project to provide technical assistance (TA) to help small rural hospitals and rural health clinics (RHCs) strengthen their foundations in key elements of value-based care.
Purpose
- The Rural Healthcare Provider Transition Project provides technical assistance (TA) to help small rural hospitals and rural health clinics (RHCs) strengthen their foundations in key elements of value-based care. The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) defines value-based care as focusing on quality, provider performance, and patient experience. Value-based programs encourage hospitals to improve the quality, efficiency, patient experience, and safety of care that Medicare beneficiaries receive during acute care inpatient stays. The TA offered through this cooperative agreement strengthens these key elements of value-based care. TA will give hospitals and RHCs a clear understanding of value-based care and the strategies they can use to effectively participate in a healthcare system focused on value.
