FY27-29 Funding Cycle Program Overview: The New Mexico Health Care Authority (HCA) invites rural health care providers and facilities to apply for funding through the Rural Healthcare Delivery Fund (RHCDF). The RHCDF provides funding for ongoing costs of rural health care providers and facilities to stabilize existing health care services. Eligible applicants must be New Mexico Medicaid Enrolled Providers who are actively serving Medicaid recipients and propose to deliver services that are eligible for Medicaid reimbursement.
