This year’s conference will feature keynote speaker J.D. Kleinke, a health care economist and author, who will provide an up-to-the-minute look at the realistic options for legislators looking to replace the ACA. A variety of breakout sessions will give attendees the opportunity to examine and discuss models changing the delivery of and access to rural health care; and ways in which data and technology are improving health care for rural populations. The conference will once again include the popular education track focused on governance issues, including succession planning for a new senior leader, a hospital trustee’s role in physician recruitment and retention, and understanding CMS and state surveys.
