Updated Paperwork for Rural Hospitals

HRSA is updating how it collects information from small rural hospitals for the Medicare Rural Hospital Flexibility Program and is asking for public feedback during a 30-day comment period. If you work with or run a rural hospital, this affects you because HRSA submitted an Information Collection Request to OMB under the Paperwork Reduction Act and OMB will not act until that 30-day comment period has closed.
