Many more letters will soon follow. This first group  xof letters went to 43 rural health care providers, and committed an estimated total of $235,254.18.  xThe funds committed to this support will help stateoftheart telemedicine reach rural areas.  xySpecifically, the Telecommunications Act of 1996, permits certain rural health care providers to  x_obtain telecommunications services at rates that are available to health care providers that serve  xurban areas in the same state. The discounts will ensure that health care providers for rural areas  xhave affordable access to modern telecommunications services that will enable them to provide medical services to all parts of the nation.
