The Rural Health Clinics (RHCs) program is intended to increase primary care services for Medicaid and Medicare patients in rural communities. RHCs can be public, private, or non-profit. A clinic with RHC status is eligible for enhanced reimbursement rates for providing Medicaid and Medicare services in rural areas. RHCs must be located within non-urban rural areas that have health care shortage designations, and they must use midlevel practitioners, such as physician assistants and/or nurse practitioners, as well as medical doctors.
