Posts - Bill - HR 5821 Rural Hospital Fairness Act

house 10/24/2025 - 119th Congress

We aim to ensure certain rural hospitals retain their status as critical access hospitals under Medicare, even if they no longer meet specific location rules, so they can continue providing essential care to their communities. This helps protect healthcare access in areas with limited hospital options.
