I understand how important the loan guarantee provisions of S. 1044 are to the health centers. The States are rapidly moving to managed care systems for Medicaid recipients.

The loan guarantee program will benefit centers across the country, including rural centers who are now trying to position themselves for the movement of managed care into rural areas.
