March for Rural Hospitals: July 30-31

Join National Rural Health Association’s March for Rural Hospitals on July 30-31 in Washington, D.C. and fight to protect the Medicare Dependent Hospital designation and the Low-Volume Hospital Adjuster. These vital programs will expire on Oct. 1 if congressional action is not taken.

A recent study shows that these payment formulas do not, in fact, cost the Medicare program more. Furthermore, rural hospitals have better or equal quality metrics. For a full copy of this report, click here. To see NRHA’s press release about the report, click here.

NRHA encourages you to write to and visit your members of Congress in their district offices or at town hall meetings. To find information on district and state offices as well as town hall times and locations, click here.
