A new state initiative for rural healthcare will help reopen a hospital in Martin County. The NC Care Hospital investment will provide $150 million to rural hospitals across North Carolina. The UNC System is in charge of distributing the funds, and the state’s public university hospitals will operate the facilities. Half of the money will go to ECU Health and the other to UNC Health. Earlier this month, the UNC Board of Governors voted to allocate $35 million for the Martin County reopening.

The reductions could impact several higher education initiatives, ranging from tuition and academic centers to scholarship programs. One proposal, a $9.5 million cut to the UNC Campus Scholarship Program, could have an outsized impact on the state’s Historically Minority-Serving Institutions (HMSIs).
