Your Hospital and Your Community: Vital Allies in Health Care
December 9, 2009
Duration: 60 Minutes
Cost: $99.00
Overview
The relationship between a rural hospital and its community is an important one, and one that can bring a multitude of mutual benefits if handled and nurtured appropriately. Additionally, documenting community benefits will soon be mandatory for hospitals, making it even more important for hospitals to identify how they can work with their communities and, subsequently, document the benefits (including economic impact).
Please join Jim Krile as he discusses this important and timely topic, along with integrating community benefits with performance improvement plans and overall community leadership. This is a must-attend event for hospital and community leaders alike.
