Justification:
The Delta Region Community Health Systems Development Program provides comprehensive, multi-year TA to rural health care organizations in rural counties and parishes of the Delta region to strengthen health care delivery by improving financial and operational performance and quality of care. This funding will provide a one-time supplement to the Rural Health Resource Center to provide sustainability TA to hospitals and clinics that have previously completed program TA. This support may include targeted consultations, assessment of ongoing financial and operational challenges, review of progress on quality and performance improvement activities, and assistance with sustaining service delivery improvements.
This supplemental funding is consistent with the program's focus on helping rural health care organizations implement best practice recommendations, sustain the impacts of TA, and respond to additional TA needs related to innovation, adaptability, and sustainability in rural health care organizations located in the Delta region.
