RURAL HEALTH TRANSFORMATION – Adds to existing law to establish the Idaho Rural Health Transformation Fund and the Rural Health Transformation Committee.

This bill creates the Idaho Rural Health Transformation Fund and establishes a Rural Health Transformation Committee to manage federal grant money for rural health initiatives. The fund will receive money from federal grants and can only be used for purposes approved by the federal government, with all spending subject to annual public reporting. The nine-member committee includes legislative members from both chambers and a nonvoting member from the governor's office, and it will oversee how funds are distributed, evaluate program success, and ensure sustainability plans are in place for funded projects. The committee must report quarterly progress updates to the Department of Health and Welfare and can recommend fund usage to the legislature within federal guidelines.
