RWHC is owned and operated by thirty-five, rural acute, general medical-surgical hospitals; the Cooperative's emphasis on developing an integrated network among freestanding entities distinguishes it from alternative approaches. In 1996, RWHC created a non-voting Affiliate Membership for specialty provider based systems.
