Divisions within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services oversee two separate programs to provide financial relief to health care institutions impacted by COVID-19. The Health Resources and Services Administration oversees the Provide Relief Fund and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services oversees the Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payments Program.
As shown in the chart below, 14 Vermont hospitals each received over $7 million in total from the two programs.
