Conducting oversight of Rural Health Transformation program
SB 995 requires West Virginia's Secretary of Health to submit monthly reports to the Legislature detailing how state funds from the federal Rural Health Transformation (RHT) Program are spent. The reports must include itemized budgets, vendor lists, programs developed with RHT funds, tracked data variables, and outcomes achieved. This oversight applies to West Virginia's $200 million RHT allocation (2026-2030), which aims to improve rural healthcare access and outcomes. The bill directly affects the Secretary of Health and legislative oversight bodies, mandating transparency without altering the RHT Program's operations.
