Welcome to Kansas Rural Health Works
Welcome to Kansas Rural Health Works, a resource dedicated to helping rural communities build affordable and sustainable local health care systems.
Rural Health Works (RHW) is funded through the Federal Office of Rural Health Policy (ORHP). Kansas Rural Health Works (KRHW) began in 2004 as an initiative to expand public awareness of the importance of the economic impact of the health care sector and to stress health care’s critical role in rural development. KRHW has provided information to support local decision-makers in rural communities to become proactive and intricately involved in planning and supporting their local health systems. The ultimate objective has been to maintain local health care services, including critical access hospitals, to result in healthier rural communities and economies.
