State Program Manager
“I spend more time finding data than analyzing it.”
Allocate funds where they're needed most
Unified rural health intelligence for Minnesota state program managers. Cross-system data, CMS-ready reporting, closure risk triage, and equity-informed resource allocation — in one platform.
For State Offices of Rural Health
SORH directors manage the broadest cross-section of rural health infrastructure in the state — grant portfolios, CAH oversight, federal compliance, and legislative reporting. RHT Compass consolidates the data infrastructure that underlies all of it.
Flex Program Administration
Track Medicare Rural Hospital Flexibility grant activity across your state's CAH portfolio. Monitor program milestones, identify non-compliant or at-risk recipients, and generate progress reports without hunting through multiple federal systems.
AHEAD Readiness Tracking
As CMS expands the AHEAD global budget model, SORHs face pressure to assess CAH readiness across the state. RHT Compass surfaces financial distress indicators, payer mix, and community vulnerability scores for every CAH — letting you prioritize technical assistance before enrollment windows close.
Federal Data for Legislative Briefings
Stop pulling from four federal portals before every legislative session. CMS cost reports, CHR county health rankings, CDC SVI, HRSA HPSA designations, and USAspending grant flows are pre-consolidated and updated on a rolling basis — ready to export for any committee briefing.
The Challenge
State health agencies manage massive portfolios with fragmented tools
Data Fragmentation
Hospital financials, county health data, surveillance metrics, and grant tracking live in separate systems. One question requires pulling from 4+ sources.
30-40% of time spent on data wrangling
Reporting Burden
CMS requires quarterly progress reports. State leadership demands county-level detail. The legislature wants statewide aggregates.
8-10 business days per quarterly report
Triage Without Tools
When a hospital signals financial distress, there's no systematic way to assess community impact or identify nearby alternatives.
17 hospitals on financial distress watch
Equity Scrutiny
Every allocation decision is examined through racial, geographic, and political lenses. Defending why County A got funding over County B requires hard data.
87 counties to serve equitably
