About this award

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services awarded the Maine Department of Health and Human Services a $760.032 million cooperative agreement under the Rural Health Transformation Program (CFDA 93.798) on December 29, 2025, to implement Maine's Rural Health Transformation Plan and deliver a resilient, integrated rural healthcare system across Maine through October 30, 2030.

The award funds multiple healthcare delivery and system transformation initiatives. Sub-recipients establish school-based health centers (SBHCs) providing integrated medical and behavioral health services in middle and high school settings through partnerships with Bucksport Regional Health Center, Portland Community Health Center (Greater Portland Health), Penobscot Community Health Center, Sebasticook Family Doctors, and Maine School Administrative District No. 75. Additional sub-awardees deliver crisis and specialty services: Sweetser provides peer support for individuals experiencing behavioral health crises in hospital emergency departments; Stationmd Professional Corporation delivers twenty-four-hour telehealth medical care and behavioral health support for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities; University of New England administers statewide Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Nutrition Education (SNAP-Ed); and Medical Care Development Inc. supports technology innovation initiatives under the state's rural health transformation priorities.

Performance occurs statewide across Maine. Sub-awards were executed between June 2026 and July 2026. The Rural Health Transformation Program provides one-time funding to states—no renewals or extensions apply—to support communities in transforming healthcare delivery systems and improving access and health outcomes, with funding distributed 50 percent equally to all approved states and 50 percent among states at the Administrator's discretion.
