HRSA Webinar: Sustaining Rural Labor & Delivery Programs, May 4
Rural Hospitals face ongoing financial and operational pressures that have contributed to the closure of many Labor & Delivery programs nationwide. This webinar, hosted by researchers at the Flex Monitoring Team (FMT) for rural Medicare hospitals and presented by Stroudwater, will highlight practical strategies to help rural hospitals assess and strengthen the financial sustainability of these services.
The Federal Office of Rural Health Policy (FORHP) funded the development of the Sustaining Rural Labor & Delivery Programs brief; this webinar will highlight key insights from the brief and cover:
- Approaches to improving how costs are tracked and reported,
- Understanding the financial performance of Labor & Delivery services, and
- Identifying opportunities to improve efficiency and partnerships.
Attendees will gain actionable insights to support informed decision-making and help maintain access to essential maternity care in rural communities.
Cost: Free
When: Monday, May 4, 2:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m.
