Rural Health Policy
Rural Health Policy refers to strategies and regulations aimed at improving healthcare access and quality in rural areas. These policies address unique challenges faced by these communities, such as limited healthcare facilities, fewer healthcare professionals, and transportation barriers.
These policies often include funding for community health centers, incentives for healthcare providers to work in rural settings, and initiatives to enhance telehealth services. By focusing on these areas, Rural Health Policy seeks to ensure that individuals living in rural communities receive equitable healthcare comparable to those in urban regions.
