With $50 billion in federal support through CMS’s Rural Health Transformation (RHT) program, states have a historic opportunity to modernize care delivery and digital infrastructure.

This session explores how Louisiana brought this to life, how it reflects CMS’s broader vision, and what it means for the path forward.
