HEART Advocacy

April 1, 2024

Dear Georgia HEART Supporters,

Thank you for your dedicated efforts during the recent legislative session. Your proactive engagement by reaching out to your lawmakers has resulted in significant results!

A bill extending the Georgia HEART tax credit program successfully passed both legislative chambers on March 21st. This crucial legislation extends the Rural Hospital Organization Tax Credit for an additional five years, ensuring its continuity through 2029. Additionally, it includes a substantial increase in the annual cap to $100 million starting in 2025!

As we await Governor Brian Kemp's signature, we remain appreciative for your steadfast support of this essential and life-saving tax credit program. Your advocacy has made a tangible difference in the lives of countless individuals who rely on rural hospitals for critical healthcare services.

With gratitude,

The Georgia HEART Team
