Critical Access Hospital (CAH) programs seek to improve rural health care access and reduce hospital closures, yet these providers are still under economic pressure to develop innovative strategies to thrive within their communities. Even with reimbursement advantages and CAH status benefits that allow them to maximize their position, they continue to face challenges stimulated by recent legislation activity and federal reform.  Physicians and hospitals, even small hospitals catering to smaller populations, must work together to achieve collaboration and seek alignment opportunities among themselves.  This session explores how Critical Access Hospitals can implement strategies geared toward long-term planning as they head into a new world of health care.
