Register for free Jan. 22 webinar on rural hospital closures

The Center for Health Journalism at the University of Southern California Annenberg will host a free webinar on to discuss why so many rural hospitals are closing and what the trend means for communities' health and overall wellbeing.

Kozhimannil is the director of research at the Rural Health Research Center at the University of Minnesota, and her research focuses on how health policy can improve health care delivery, quality and outcomes during critical times. McKay is a senior writer for The Wall Street Journal and writes about U.S. and global public health.
