The Office
of Rural Health Policy (ORHP) promotes better health care service
in rural America. Established in August 1987 by the Administration,
the Office was subsequently authorized by Congress in December

Congress charged the Office with informing and advising the Department
of Health and Human Services on matters affecting rural hospitals,
and health care, co-ordinating activities within the department
that relate to rural health care, and maintaining a national information
