Relating to WV Rural Health Transformation Program

SB 571 modifies West Virginia law to implement the federal Rural Health Transformation Program. It exempts the program from standard state purchasing rules (§5A-3-3d) to ensure timely use of federal funds. The bill also requires public schools to adopt the Presidential Fitness Test for students in grades 4-8 and high school (§18-2-7a), and mandates that medical and osteopathic boards require continuing education in nutrition for license renewal (§30-3-12, §30-14-10). These provisions directly affect rural health programs, public schools, and licensed healthcare professionals.
