Business Wire
CPSI (NASDAQ: CPSI), a community healthcare solutions company,
today announced its sponsorship of a new resource developed by the
Colorado Hospital Association (CHA) that assists rural healthcare
systems nationwide in developing emergency response plans for
COVID-19 and beyond. The playbook, Re-Imagining Leadership: A
Pathway for Rural Health to Thrive in a COVID-19 World, is designed
to empower rural healthcare leaders to create tailored solutions
specific to their unique needs and challenges, leading to healthier
care staff, patients, and communities.
Developed in partnership with the Farley Health Policy Center
and the University of Colorado School of Medicine, the playbook is
a comprehensive capacity-building tool for rural healthcare
delivery systems across the country to manage current and future
surges of COVID-19.
CPSI has long been an advocate for the community hospital market
and actively looks for opportunities to create a stronger future
for rural healthcare systems. According to Boyd Douglas, president
and chief executive officer of CPSI, “CPSI is honored to help build
awareness of this free and valuable resource, which is even more
critical today with the significant strain that COVID-19 is placing
on rural providers. The playbook offers a framework that can be
tailored to fit each and every rural community across the country –
including our clients and the broader market.”
Benjamin Anderson, vice president of rural health and hospitals
at CHA, added, “This playbook pulls from the wisdom of rural health
leaders and community members and includes best practices from
across the United States. We designed it with the understanding
that a precise guide for this once-in-a-lifetime crisis is
impossible. Each rural community has its own set of issues, and
this capacity-building tool empowers rural leaders to solve their
own.”
More information on this playbook can be found by visiting the
Colorado Hospital Association website.
