Which division within USAC is responsible for managing the telecommunications discount program for health care?

The Rural Health Care Division administers the Telecommunications Discount Program for health care. This division oversees the health care component of USAC’s universal service programs, providing discounts on telecommunications services (and, where applicable, broadband) to eligible rural health care providers such as hospitals and clinics. The other divisions handle different programs: the Wireless Telecommunications Division focuses on wireless-related funding, the School and Library Division runs the E-rate program for schools and libraries, and the International Programs Division manages international initiatives. So, the health care telecom discounts fall under the Rural Health Care Division.
