Are you part of CMS or a state agency?

No. RHTP Navigator is a product of VerisGov Inc and has no affiliation with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services or any state agency. CMS owns the official program; we research the public record and show our sources so you can check them.

Can you guarantee we win funding?

No, and anyone who does is selling something else. We map the money path, name who controls it, and show what a fundable request looks like in your category. Whether you win depends on your proposal and your state's process.

Do you write the grant application for us?

No. We map the money so the people who write the applications can act faster and aim at the right pool with the right framing. Custom Intel can co-author an RFP response as a separate engagement.

Where does your information come from?

Official state plans, agency records, procurement portals, and primary CMS documents across all fifty states, checked against the federal program rules. The program runs through fifty separate state processes, so this information is otherwise scattered; assembling it is the work.

What happens when you get something wrong?

It goes on the public errata page with the date, the page affected, what was wrong, and what is right. A corrections log nobody can see is not a corrections log.

Why we exist

Where our information comes from.

The details that decide how $50 billion reaches rural communities are public, but scattered across fifty state websites at fifty levels of detail. We gather them, check them against the official program rules, and show the source for every fact.

Why the details are scattered

After the November 2025 application deadline, CMS declined to release the state applications while they were under review, telling reporters the materials would follow the rules for competitive grant documents. Some states posted their full applications. Many posted only parts. A handful released everything; a few released nothing at all.

The result is a patchwork. The single most consequential set of documents in rural health this decade, scattered across fifty state portals at fifty different levels of disclosure, with the federal copy held back.

What we do with it

We collect what each state has made public, read it against the statute and the CMS program rules, and rebuild it into one consistent, comparable map. Every figure we publish carries its source, its access date, and a confidence label, so you are never taking our word for it. You are taking the original document's word for it, one hover away.

The standard we hold ourselves to

We aggregate public information. We do not republish anything a state has chosen to withhold, and we do not present an inference as a fact. Where a detail is not yet public, we mark it open. The point is not to leak what is hidden. The point is to make what is public actually usable.

See the discipline in practice: how we research and refresh, how every fact carries its source, and the federal program layer that every state plan answers to.
