Washington State Health Care Authority Selects REI Systems' GovGrants® Amid Historic Investment in Rural Health

Configurable platform will help HCA manage complex health funding with greater visibility, accountability, and impact.

STERLING, Va., Sept. 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- REI Systems, a leading provider of innovative technology solutions for government, announced that the Washington State Health Care Authority (HCA) has selected GovGrants® to support the management and oversight of its grant programs. The configurable platform will help HCA standardize processes, strengthen subrecipient monitoring, improve financial visibility, and manage grants through one centralized system.

The implementation comes as states begin administering investments through the Rural Health Transformation Program, a $50 billion federal initiative led by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. The program will distribute $10 billion annually from 2026 through 2030 to expand rural access to care, strengthen the healthcare workforce, improve infrastructure and technology, and advance innovative care models. Washington received approximately $181.3 million in first-year funding. The Rural Health Transformation Program is a centerpiece of the MAHA push to improve health in rural America. It was authorized by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (Section 71401 of Public Law 119-21) and empowers states to strengthen rural communities across America by improving healthcare access, quality, and outcomes by transforming the healthcare delivery ecosystem.

"Washington HCA's selection of GovGrants reflects the growing need for flexible, accountable grants management as states take on increasingly complex health initiatives," said Mayank Jain, Senior Director of SaaS. "This is about more than administering funds. It is about giving program leaders the visibility and tools they need to direct resources effectively, support community partners, and demonstrate meaningful results for the people they serve. As Washington puts its Rural Health Transformation funding to work, GovGrants will help HCA track every dollar from award to outcome, so investments in prevention, workforce, and technology reach rural communities with the transparency taxpayers expect."

REI Systems brings extensive experience supporting grants and health programs at the federal, state, and local levels. During the COVID-19 crisis, REI supported a major federal health agency in launching an emergency grant program just 12 days after the CARES Act passed, directing funding to 14,000 health clinics serving more than 28 million patients. The effort maintained strong accountability, with no identified waste, fraud, or abuse and no material audit issues.
