Report from NRHA on Developing Collaborative Relationships between Rural
Community Health Centers and Hospitals
A new report by the National Rural Health Association offers
practical advice to create successful partnerships between rural hospitals and
community health centers. The report, "Practical Tips and Information
Resources for Developing Collaborative Relationships," analyzed the
elements of five collaborative models and their benefits to the CHC, hospital
and community. The report also identified the barriers that these programs have
overcome to achieve current levels of effectiveness.
