Mary Wakefield, PhD, Health Resources and Services Administration administrator, used to attend the National Rural Health Association’s Policy Institutes as a participant. Nowadays, she’s at the podium, still singing NRHA’s praises like she did today on the first day of the 25th annual event in DC. She pointed to a recent statistic that rural residents live an average of 2.4 fewer years than urban dwellers. She said her goal is to 'ensure rural America is a clear focus in virtually every one of our programs at HRSA' and highlighted efforts in telemedicine, behavioral health, early childhood services, workforce, insurance and more.
