KRHA’s mission is to ensure equitable distribution of and access to health care for rural Kentuckians. This mission requires that our members know what’s going on legislatively.

 

Please remember that we are the healthcare experts in our communities. Our elected officials are usually not healthcare experts, and they need our help to make good decisions. They may not know or understand rural health care needs. Legislators need our information and need to know our experiences. If we as members of this organization don’t provide them with information, they may get incorrect guidance from somewhere else. 

 

Let’s all be informed, get involved and take action in the political process. The following links can get you started.
