The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) last week adopted
new rules to improve the universal service program for rural health
care providers. The program helps rural health care providers
obtain access to modern telecommunications and information services
for medical and health maintenance purposes. The six-year-old
program provides discounted telecommunications services to rural
health care providers at rates equal to the rates charged for
similar services in urban areas.
