CMS Awards $93.3 Million to Georgia for Telehealth Expansion and Rural Surgical Robotics
CMS awarded $93.3 million in federal funding to Georgia to expand telehealth services and advance surgical robotics in rural areas. The funding supports infrastructure for remote care delivery and robotic surgery capabilities in underserved communities. Awards are available immediately for eligible Georgia providers and health systems. The investment aims to address rural healthcare access gaps that affect Medicaid beneficiaries who rely on safety-net providers in non-urban areas.
Rural Medicaid beneficiaries in Georgia will gain expanded access to specialty care through telehealth and advanced surgical services, potentially reducing avoidable transfers and improving outcomes for populations served by rural providers.
