The Rural Health Value team recently released two new rural innovation profiles. The first covers a critical access hospital in Susquehanna, PA’s Experience in the Pennsylvania Rural Health Model: Barnes-Kasson County Hospital. This profile provides insight into the hospital’s experience participating in the Pennsylvania Rural Health Model, which includes a global budget and transforming care to address community health needs. The other profile on MaineHealth ACO – Integrating and Using Data to Support Care Delivery highlights a predominantly rural network of hospitals and clinics in Maine and how they have integrated clinical and claims data to support improvements in care delivery and target patient needs as part of their Accountable Care Organization. The Rural Health Value team is funded by the Federal Office of Rural Health Policy.
