Like a destructive earthquake, recent news from The Chartis Center for Rural, documenting the accelerated rate of closures among rural hospitals, is sending shock waves through rural communities.
As with the Richter scale, the closure of one rural hospital is likely to have an exponential impact on all rural health. And the stark reality is that, as of January 2020, a total of 120 rural health facilities have closed their doors.
Leslie Marsh, the chief executive of Lexington Regional Health Center in Lincoln, Neb., returns to Monitor Mondays and reports on precipitous peril for rural hospitals, which is now rising to a national disaster.
