State Policy Matters
Michigan’s MVHs serve a vital role in the state’s healthcare system ensuring access to care for residents in rural and small urban areas. While these hospitals experience similar challenges to critical access hospitals, including rising costs, demographic shifts and severe workforce challenges, they are not eligible for significant state policy benefits.
State funding is needed to ensure financial sustainability for these facilities. This additional funding recognizes the fixed costs associated with maintaining operating services at facilities with inconsistent volume and reimbursement cycles.
