About this listen

In this episode, Michael chats with Andrea Fox, Senior Editor at Healthcare IT News. Together, they discuss a recent study on how rural hospital at home programs have improved the patient experience—who conducted the study and its findings. Plus, they dive into what makes home health in rural areas unique compared to urban areas, policy implications of the study, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services' new Office of Rural Health Transformation and the funding behind it, what this new federal focus on rural health could mean moving forward, and much more.
