The stakes have never been higher for rural health systems. On this episode, ECG partner John Budd talks with Lynn Barr, founder of Caravan Health, about the rural healthcare landscape, including:
- The $50 billion Rural Health Transformation Fund program.
- Population health.
- Strategies to move beyond short-term fixes and toward sustainable care models.
“To fix the future of rural healthcare, and I would say all healthcare in America, we have to pay for health. We can’t keep paying only for sickness.” – Lynn Barr
“Innovation starts within the constraints that we have. If you stop waiting for the answer to change at the federal level, there are opportunities to use the systems we have to care for patients differently.” – John Budd
