NRHA Webinar – CMO Certification Program

The National Rural Health Association (NRHA) Is hosting a webinar, this month, that may be of interest to you and your organization.

With the constantly changing healthcare landscape, there has never been a more crucial time for physician leaders to have the tools, knowledge, and network of peers and experts they need to thrive in their roles.  These are things you don’t learn in medical school.

Physician leaders are unique. Physicians have been trained to take care of patients and provide leadership in doing so. Providing leadership within a rural hospital however is different, one of the resounding reasons for the creation of this program. This program was created for rural hospital CMOs and Physician Leaders by rural hospital CMOs and Physician Leaders.

What kind of value might you receive if you participate in this program? Come find out! Learn about this one-of-a-kind program created by rural hospital physician leaders for rural hospital physician leaders during a live webinar in February.
