Rural Health Transformation Program | NCDHHS On Dec. 29, 2025, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) awarded North Carolina over $213 million in federal funding through the Rural Health Transformation Program (RHTP). North Carolina applied for the funds to improve healthcare for rural North Carolinians and their communities.
North Carolinians interested in learning more about the Rural Health Transformation Program are encouraged to check back on this page for the latest updates. North Carolina has the second-largest rural population in the U.S., with nearly 3 million residents living in rural areas. This plan reflects NCDHHS’ commitment to ensuring that every North Carolinian, no matter where they live, has access to high-quality healthcare.
The North Carolina Rural Health Transformation Program (NCRHTP) emerged from extensive engagement with more than 420 stakeholders across the state, including rural hospitals, community health centers, local health departments, faith-based organizations, Tribal communities and community members.
A Plan Built With, and For, Rural North Carolina The plan is designed so that every North Carolinian can see the benefit of this work — from farmers in Robeson County to teachers in Madison County, small business owners in Bertie County, and parents in Dare County. It aims to strengthen the healthcare infrastructure that supports individuals, families, and communities across the entire state.
The comprehensive initiative focuses on six interconnected strategies: Community-Rooted Care Networks : Establishing locally governed "NC ROOTS" Hubs that connect medical, behavioral health, and social services, making it easier for rural residents to access comprehensive care close to home Prevention and Chronic Disease Management : Expanding programs for diabetes and hypertension control, cancer screening, maternal health services, and nutrition support, including "food as medicine" initiatives Behavioral Health Expansion : Growing mental health and substance use disorder services through new clinics, mobile crisis teams, school-based programs, and integration with primary care Workforce Development : Training and retaining healthcare professionals through rural residency programs, incentives and innovative career pathways—creating jobs while addressing provider shortages Financial Sustainability : Helping rural practices and hospitals transition to value-based payment models that reward keeping people healthy, not just treating illness Technology and Innovation : Deploying cutting-edge artificial intelligence to support rural providers, improving health information sharing, and ensuring digital literacy for all residents Partnerships Across Sectors Implementation will be guided by a statewide steering committee including NCDHHS’ Office of Rural Health and divisions of Medicaid, Public Health, and Mental Health, working in partnership with university and community college partners, and numerous community partners.
NCDHHS recently announced a new NC Rural Health Transformation Program Advisory Committee to guide how the program is designed and implemented for our rural communities. The department is committed to transparency throughout implementation, with regular public updates, community forums, and opportunities for ongoing stakeholder input.
The RHTP will improve health care delivery for more than 3 million North Carolinians in rural communities, support over 400 rural health facilities, and bring hundreds of millions of dollars in federal investment to the state over the next five years.
NCDHHS recently announced the selection of organizations to serve as North Carolina Rural Organizations Orchestrating Transformation for Sustainability (ROOTS) Hub Leads for NC’s Rural Health Transformation Program. Together, these organizations will work as regional networks connecting medical, behavioral health, and social supports as North Carolina increases access to care for rural communities across all 100 counties.
Learn more about the ROOTS Hub leads . NCDHHS will work to finalize contracts with the selected organizations by early June 2026. Once confirmed, the NC ROOTS Hub Leads will conduct regional needs assessments and establish local networks of partner organizations focused on strengthening the rural health care infrastructure.

R.
1, a federal reconciliation bill signed into law in July that includes significant changes to Medicaid. RHTP provides one-time funding to states to support rural communities in improving health care access, quality and outcomes. The program is a cooperative agreement designed to help states transform rural health care delivery systems by investing in innovation, infrastructure, partnerships and workforce development.
It is not a replacement for Medicaid funding, but rather a strategic opportunity to strengthen rural health systems in the face of longstanding challenges. The first $25 billion from RHTP will be split evenly between all 50 states and will equal about $200 million each year for the next five years for North Carolina. The second $25 billion will be split at CMS' discretion among all 50 states over the next five years.
