✨ Today is and an opportunity to celebrate the successes of rural healthcare providers and raise awareness about the challenges they face. It's a reminder that healthcare is a critical issue for all Americans, no matter where they live.

Here's why awareness of rural healthcare is important:

1. There aren't enough doctors.
2. About 24% of children in rural settings are battling poverty.
3. There aren't enough hospitals.
4. Almost 20% of rural counties lack mental health services compared with only 5% of metropolitan counties.
5. Rural communities are part of America.

We celebrate the providers, healthcare professionals and community leaders who work to serve their communities in the best way possible.
