Selected Core Competency: Managing Information and Evaluation

Idaho establishes subgrants to release funding to all 27 Idaho Critical Access Hospitals that are all SHIP hospitals. We have two within one network and four within another network. The majority of Idaho SHIP hospitals utilize SHIP funds to help support ICD-11 software.
