Presentation If You Plan to Dance, It’s Time to ‘Pretty Up’

Is your small hospital caught between two reimbursement

systems? Do you find yourself trying to survive under cost-

based or fee-for-service while trying to prepare for Values

Based reimbursement?

If so, you are not alone. In this session, we will examine

the pressures on rural healthcare today, examine trends

impacting those pressures, and identify six things every

rural hospital should be doing to set themselves up for

success under both systems. Along the way, we will

examine the case study of one rural hospital that moved

from the brink of closure to being recognized as one of the

best hospitals in America.

This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the Accreditation Elements

and Policies of the Michigan State Medical Society through the joint providership of Central

Michigan University Medical Education Partners and the Hospital Council of East Central Michigan.

Central Michigan University Medical Education Partners is accredited by the Michigan State Medical

Society to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

Designation Statement Central Michigan University Medical Education Partners designates this educational activity for a
