The North Dakota Department of Health and Human Services, Medical Services Division, is accepting applications for a vendor to provide Critical Access Hospital Networking support for the development, expansion and sustainability of a statewide clinically integrated network that serves independent critical access hospitals in North Dakota. 

The 69th North Dakota Legislative Assembly in 2025 appropriated $2,000,000 through HB 1012, Section 18, from the Community Health Trust Fund to fund this project.

This funding builds on the previous biennium’s efforts (SB 2012, 2023) to strengthen rural health care capacity, data-sharing and value-based care readiness. 

Public comment is sought on an amendment to the state’s Medicaid 1915(c) waiver for home and community-based (HCBS) services. The Traditional Intellectual Disabilities/Developmental Disability (IID/DD) HCBS wavier includes an array of home and community-based services in the least restrictive environment. The purpose of the amendment is to implement changes in services and programming to improve access to HCBS and update language changes related to internal processes. The anticipated effective date of the proposed renewal is expected to be Jan. 1, 2026.
