The Tippah County Hospital was awarded a $350,000 Project Grant under the Rural Health Care Services Outreach, Rural Health Network Development and Small Health Care Provider Quality Improvement program (CFDA 93.912) by the Department of Health and Human Services' Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). The grant will fund a 2-year project to improve outpatient preventive care and create sustainable revenue streams from value-based care activities at the critical access hospital.

These initiatives aim to improve preventive care, care coordination, and financial sustainability for the hospital, which serves the rural Tippah County, Mississippi community.
The Tippah County Hospital has also received federal grant sub-awards in the past, including funds from the Mississippi State Department of Health for the SHIP COVID and Mitigation Grant and the 2020-2021 Coronavirus State Hospital Improvement Program, which supported COVID-19 testing, clinical services, equipment procurement, and addressing pandemic-related financial and workforce challenges.
