Health Equity Webinar Series
Rural America faces disproportionate social and economic disparities compared to urban settings, often leading to poor health outcomes for rural patients and their communities. Achieving health equity and addressing the needs of rural populations requires systematic, community-wide change.
Stroudwater Associates has developed a three-part webinar series that speaks to the challenges of rural healthcare and the newly adopted MBQIP health equity quality measures.
The Office of Rural Health and Primary Care (ORHPC) invites you to join us this webinar series on Health Equity. You can register for each meeting using the links provided, below.
