About this list
CAH and REH labels come from CMS provider types. Rural PPS means an active short-term hospital marked rural in CMS POS, matched by CMS ID to the FY 2026 IPPS file. This does not include every hospital that may qualify for a rural program.
Some CAHs and REHs sit in metro counties and still hold their Medicare status. This list excludes urban PPS hospitals, unverified microhospitals, and standalone ERs without one of these CMS types.
