(Oct. 13, 2023) – The United States House Ways and Means Committee recently released an
open letter to the health care community requesting comments and input on solutions, with a focus on bold, new proposals, that can help turn the tide against disparities in access to care in rural and underserved communities. The Kansas Hospital Association responded to the request for information.
Our letter highlighted financial challenges, needed fixes to the Rural Emergency Hospital program, workforce issues, telehealth flexibilities and other relevant issues.
