Dear RHC Community,
This week, the House Ways and Means Committee, led by Chairman Jason Smith (MO-08) released a Request for Information (RFI) on addressing access to health care challenges in rural, underserved communities. The Committee is seeking “bold, new proposals” in the below key areas:
NARHC appreciates the Committee seeking stakeholder input on these important issues and for its attention to rural health this Congress. We will be submitting a response focusing on NARHC’s top 3 current policy priorities: The Rural Health Clinic Burden Reduction Act, Medicare Advantage, and Telehealth, along with other priorities (within the limits of a 10-page response!) As a reminder, you don’t ever have to set foot in D.C. to make your clinic’s voice heard! We encourage you to submit comments directly to WMAccessRFI@mail.house.gov by October 5, 2023, at 5 pm ET. Please email Sarah.Hohman@narhc.org with any questions. |
