RHC Community! We hope you will join us for our free, upcoming technical assistance webinar, Mobile Units and Your RHC – Is This a Good Fit?

Many RHCs are considering expanding their services and patient access opportunities through mobile units, either as an extension of their current clinic or through a stand-alone unit.

This webinar will review current regulations and guidance and explore operational considerations of whether a mobile unit is a good fit for your RHC, featuring Kate Hill from The Compliance Team!

Additionally, we are excited to have Sara Stringfield and Candace Mansfield from Baptist Health share their successes and lessons learned in opening a mobile RHC in rural Kentucky.

There will also be a Q&A session during the webinar.
