Key points
Creation of 5-year, 0% interest loans for constructing or improving rural hospital buildings.
Eligibility for hospitals in counties with fewer than 20,000 residents and significant distance from other facilities.
Option to extend the interest-free period for an additional 5 years if the hospital faces financial challenges.
Access to federal technical assistance to help rural hospitals improve their operations and financial health.
