Rural Populations
Certain populations within rural communities face challenges in access care. Addressing rural health inequities and declining life expectancy rates are a top priority for NRHA. The federal investment in rural health programs is a small portion of health care spending, but is critical to rural Americans. We encourage you to utilize the following advocacy materials when advocating for rural populations.
