State Senator Vincent J. Polistina

Some hospitals in New Jersey may be eligible for part of the $50 billion CMS spending on rural health care, according to State Sen Vincent Polistina (R, New Jersey).

During a visit to AtlantiCare, CMS Administrator Mehmet Oz, MD, MBA, called for rural health systems to modernize IT infrastructure through the $50 billion Rural Transformation Fund, including through artificial intelligence (AI).

State governments must have budgetary and regulatory flexibility to support health care innovation, says State Sen Vincent Polistina (R, New Jersey).
