Texas Hospitals To Offer Additional Community Service
Texas hospitals join with the Social Security Administration and state agencies in a three and a half year program to utilize chronically vacant beds in rural hospitals for long term skilled nursing care. Participating rural hospitals will receive Medicare savings as incentives while expanding care options for rural residents and reducing overall costs. The THA, led by O Ray Hurst, notes the program aims to model rural health care delivery and curb Medicare costs, with Sam A Edwards supervising the project.
