Virtual Crucial Conversations – Rural Health: Solving for Improved Access

You must create an account/be logged in to register for all NHCC events.

Some say your zip code is a greater determinant of your health and lifespan than your genetic code. Despite covering 97% of the landmass, rural areas face significant healthcare disparities, with 80% of the population residing in only 3% of the land. Join us for a Crucial Conversation on Rural Health: Steps to Improving Access to Care, where we'll explore solutions to address these challenges.

From advocating for funding to address the pressing needs of rural communities to addressing the recruitment of healthcare professionals and finding talent in underserved areas, attendees will gain valuable insights into the multifaceted nature of the issue. Through thoughtful dialogue and collaboration, this intimate series serves to inspire healthcare leaders who seek to contribute to dynamic discussions aimed to solve challenges plaguing the healthcare industry.
