In 1997, the Commission established the Rural Health Care support mechanism, which provides universal service support to ensure that rural health care providers pay no more than their urban counterparts for their telecommunications needs and Internet access in the provision of health care services. In response to underutilization of the current program, the Commission established a Pilot Program and selected 69 participants. The Pilot Program assist public and non-profit health care providers build state and region-wide broadband networks dedicated to health care.
