Hawaii Small Rural Hospital Improvement Program

Funding is provided through a federal SHIP grant and is designed to help small rural hospitals of less than 50 beds do any or all of the following: 1) enable the purchase of equipment and/or training to help hospitals attain value-based purchasing provision in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA); 2) aid small rural hospitals in joining or becoming accountable care organizations, or create shared savings programs per the ACA; and 3) enable small rural hospitals to purchase health information technology, equipment, and/or training to prepare for implementation of ICD-10/11 and/or payment bundling. To be considered, interested parties must be a hospital in a rural designated area in Hawaii; have fewer than 50 acute care beds; and submit a completed application, which can be obtained from Scott Daniels at scott.daniels@doh.hawaii.gov. Applications will be evaluated on the applicant meeting program requirements and the applicability of the project(s) to the program goals.
