Sources of Technical Support

The Rural Health Clinics Center, managed by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), serves as a comprehensive resource for information related to RHCs. RHCs are health care facilities located in rural, underserved areas, established to enhance access to primary care services in these communities. They receive special Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements to support their operations.

National Association of Rural Health Clinics hosts webinars for the RHC community, to provide updates on the latest regulations, best practices, and new opportunities. Whether new to the RHC world or a career-long professional, everyone is likely to benefit from this education. Webinar slides and recordings are available.

Consultants

Private consulting firms can assist with rural health clinic certification preparation, audit and accounting, Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement, and a range of support customized to Critical Access Hospitals, Rural Health Clinics, and other rural facilities.
