This grant, the Rural Veterans Health Access Program (RVHAP), provides funding opportunities for states. The core purpose is to significantly improve access to essential healthcare services and enhance the coordination of care for veterans residing in rural communities. Award recipients are expected to collaborate closely with various healthcare providers and community partners. Grant funds can be utilized to implement diverse strategies aimed at increasing the capacity of critical access hospitals (CAHs) and other rural health organizations, ensuring they can effectively address the specific health needs of rural veterans. A key component involves assisting these providers in forging stronger connections with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) system, thereby streamlining coordinated care for rural veterans across both community and VA healthcare resources.
