Montana is set to receive $233.5 million in Fiscal Year 2026 through the Rural Health Transformation (RHT) Program, according to an announcement made by Congressman Troy Downing. The funding is part of the One Big Beautiful Bill, which was supported by Republicans and aims to bolster rural health care across the United States.
“Nearly every county in Montana is rural, and this historic funding will provide critical support for families across our state,” said Congressman Troy Downing. “I am proud to have voted for the One Big Beautiful Bill which secured this funding, and I look forward to seeing it improve health outcomes in Central and Eastern Montana.”
Montana’s allocation represents the fourth-largest disbursement among all states for fiscal year 2026. The RHT Program marks the largest federal investment in rural health care in U.S. history.
