Join NRHA's Grassroots Working Group for health reform! This is YOUR chance to have an impact on the largest health care bill in generations. Health reform legislation is progressing quickly in Congress, and NRHA has created a special tool to share information through this crucial period. Join us for weekly conference calls to hear updates on reform progress and strategize going forward. We need the help of all our members to remind Congress that rural America is a crucial part of health reform. In order for any health reform to be a success for the 25 percent of Americans who live in rural areas, it must address three issues:
- The workforce shortage crisis must be abated;
- Equity in reimbursement must occur;
- Health disparities must be eliminated and vulnerable populations must be protected.
To participate in the Grassroots Working Group, please send a blank e-mail to join-grassroots@lists.wisc.edu, and you will receive an activation e-mail in reply. For more information on rural America and health care reform, click here.
