What this amendment would do

SA 5728, submitted by Ms. Blunt Rochester and Mr. Bennet, aims to change section 202 of the bill.

The purpose of this amendment is to:

  • Prevent the forced closure of any rural hospital by repealing health care funding reductions mandated under Public Law 119-21.

  • Guarantee funding for the Rural Health Transformation Program by ensuring funds allotted to States stay available until they are spent and by stopping the redistribution of unexpended or unobligated funds from those allotments.
