Universal Service Fund (USF)
The Public Service Commission is responsible for the policies and procedures of the Universal Service Fund.
The Fund was established under the 1993 Wisconsin Act 496 to ensure that all state residents receive essential
telecommunication services and have access to advanced telecommunication capabilities. Universal Service
Fund programs created by the Public Service Commission have been developed to address telecommunication needs
for low-income customers, high rate areas of the state, customers with disabilities, non-profit groups and medical
clinics and public health agencies.
