        Requires a grant recipient to submit a  progress  report  to  the      
   Department of Public Health, rather than to the Office of Rural Health      
   within  the  Department.  Provides that the Department may assist each      
   grant recipient in meeting goals and  objectives,  rather  than  shall      
   ensure  that  each  recipient  is  meeting  the  goals and objectives.      
   Provides for an opportunity for public comment concerning the awarding      
   of grants.
