Access to care doesn’t start at the clinic door. In rural and underserved communities, transportation is often the deciding factor in whether care happens at all. As states deploy Rural Health Transformation (RHT) funding, expectations have shifted from good intentions to demonstrable access, measurable outcomes, and audit-ready accountability.
This white paper outlines why transportation has become one of the most powerful levers in RHT programs. Drawing on real-world experience with statewide Medicaid and rural health programs, learn how states can modernize transportation without sacrificing control, transparency, or local flexibility, while strengthening the ability to prove impact under RHT requirements.
Learn about:
The limitations of legacy transportation models under RHT scrutiny
Challenges verifying services delivered and demonstrating program impact
Transportation infrastructure as a system of record for RHT programs
Supporting access, equity, and defensible decision-making with audit-ready reporting
