“Finding Order During Chaos: The 2016 Post-Election Rural Perspective” (Video of RWHC Retreat Keynote Address, March 35d, 2017, 1 hr 19 min)
Brock Slabach is Sr. Vice-President, Member Services, National Rural Health Association. He was a rural hospital administrator for more than 21 years. He has been on the board of the National Rural Health Association, the regional policy board of the American Hospital Association, as well as many regional and state boards involving rural health. Brock discussed the 2016 election results and the potential impact of policy changes on health networks and their members. Rural providers of health care are disproportionately dependent on government payers to sustain the services they offer. Policy changes could create chaos. Network leaders should assume a leadership role in assisting their members to create order from the chaos that will translate into action for the communities they serve.
