2023 Rural Health Summit
Register TODAY for the 2023 Rural Health Summit
Providing healthcare in rural communities poses significant challenges due to the unique resources and market conditions. Attracting and retaining talent can be difficult, and promoting awareness of available services can be a hurdle. Additionally, referring patients to the appropriate care providers can be challenging. This event is specifically designed to address these issues by engaging in genuine discussions with regional leaders and focusing on regional needs. Our goal is to enhance the capacity of healthcare providers to deliver exceptional care to patients in Eastern NC, and we look forward to collaborating with you to achieve this objective.
