Advancing health equity during National Rural Health Day
Each year, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Office of Minority Health (CMS OMH) celebrates National Rural Health Day by raising awareness about health care challenges people in rural areas, Tribal nations, territories, and geographically isolated communities often face. People living in rural communities tend to be older and in poorer health than people living in urban areas, and they often face disparities in access to care. We work throughout the year to address these challenges for the more than 61 million Americans who live in rural areas, by publishing data and resources to help all residents achieve their best health.
