SUMMARY:Rural Health Journalism Workshop 2021
DESCRIPTION:Spotlight speaker:\nU.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack\n\n\n\nAmerica’s 60 million rural residents face distinct pandemic COVID-19 challenges – and those are just the latest in longstanding health challenges for rural populations. \n\n\n\nHealth journalists will find story after story during the virtual Rural Health Journalism Workshop June 21-23. The easy-access workshop will bring journalists together with health care and policy experts who focus on the medical needs\, and how they differ\, in rural areas. \n\n\n\nYou don’t have to live in a rural area to write great stories about what’s happening just beyond the city limits. Non-urban populations can play a larger-than-expected role in setting policy and legislation in many states and across the country. Leave with a better understanding of what’s happening – and will be happening – in rural regions to bring more perspective to your stories. \n\n\n\nThis special three-day\, no-fee workshop will help you find and cover health stories in rural America. To attend and hear from experts\, get answers to your questions and meet speakers in small breakout sessions\, you just need to be an AHCJ member. And after the workshop\, AHCJ members will have access to recordings. \n\n\n\nProgram\n\n\n\n\nMonday\, June 21\n10:30 a.m.Welcome period begins 10:50-11 a.m.Rural workshop welcome message\, day’s agenda\, intro first session 11 a.m.-12:30 p.m.Defining rural and rural residents-Steven Hirsch\, public health analyst\, Policy Research Division\, Federal Office of Rural Health Policy-Trudy Lieberman\, contributing editor\, Center for Health Journalism Digital-Janice Probst\, Ph.D.\, director emerita\, Rural and Minority Health Research Center\, University of South Carolina-Moderator: Melissa Patrick\, reporter\, Kentucky Health News 12:30-12:50 p.m.Breakout room with session speakers 12:50-1 p.m.Break 1-2:30 p.m.Data that can give context to rural health reporting-Elizabeth Fite\, reporter\, Chattanooga Times Free Press-Shawnda Schroeder\, Ph.D.\, associate director of research and evaluation\, Health Center for Rural Health\, University of North Dakota School of Medicine and Health Sciences-Aallyah Wright\, staff writer\, Stateline-Moderator: Erica Hensley\, independent journalist 2:30-2:50 p.m.Breakout room with session speakers 2:50-3 p.m.Break 3-4:30 p.m.Rural COVID response: From hospitalizations to vaccinations-Mark Holmes\, Ph.D.\, director\, Sheps Center for Health Services Research\, University of North Carolina Gillings School of Global Public Health-Alan Morgan\, chief executive officer\, National Rural Health Association-Mary Ellen Pratt\, chief executive officer\, St. James Parish Hospital-Moderator: Lauren Weber\, Midwest correspondent\, Kaiser Health News 4:30-4:50 p.m.Breakout room with session speakers 4:50-5 p.m.End of day with preview of tomorrow’s sessions\n\n\n\n\nTuesday\, June 22\n10:30-10:55 a.m.Welcome begins 10:55 a.m.Welcome message\, day’s agenda\, intro first session 11 a.m.-12:30 p.m.Stimulus package: How will it affect rural health?-Carrie Cochran-McClain\, vice president for government affairs and policy\, National Rural Health Association-Mandy Cohen\, secretary\, North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services-Jami Snyder\, director\, Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System; president\, National Association of Medicaid Directors-Moderator: Joanne Kenen\, editor at large for health care\, Politico 12:30-12:50 p.m.Breakout room with session speakers 12:50-1 p.m.Break 1-2:30 p.m.Barriers to health equity during a pandemic-Bryan Hodge\, D.O.\, Department of Community and Public Health interim chair\, University of North Carolina Health Sciences for Mountain Area Health Education Center-Derek Lewis\, M.D.\, physician\, Arkansas Primary Care Clinic-Steve North\, M.D.\, M.P.H.\, state medical director\, Eleanor Health-Loretta Wilson\, chief executive officer\, Hill Hospital of Sumter County-Moderator: Melba Newsome\, AHCJ core topic leader/health equity 2:30-2:50 p.m.Breakout room with session speakers 2:50-3 p.m.Break 3-4:30 p.m.Workforce in quantity and quality-Steve Crane\, M.D.\, family physician\, WNC Family Medical Center-Erin Fraher\, Ph.D.\, M.P.P.\, director\, Carolina Health Workforce Research Center\, University of North Carolina-Davis Patterson\, Ph.D.\, director\, WWAMI Rural Health Research\, University of Washington School of Medicine-Moderator: Rose Hoban\, founder and editor\, North Carolina News 4:30-4:50 p.m.Breakout room with session speakers 4:50-5 p.m.End of day with preview of tomorrow’s sessions\n\n\n\n\nWednesday\, June 23\n10:30-10:55 a.m.Welcome begins 10:55 a.m.Welcome message\, day’s agenda\, intro first session 11 a.m.-noonSpotlight speaker: Growing rural health-Tom Vilsack\, U.S. secretary of agriculture Noon-12:10 p.m.Break 12:10-1:50 p.m.Aging in rural America post-pandemic-Carrie Henning-Smith\, Ph.D.\, M.P.H.\, M.S.W.\, deputy director\, University of Minnesota Rural Health Research Center-Trudy Lieberman\, contributing editor\, Center for Health Journalism Digital-Carole Myers\, Ph.D.\, N.P.\, professor\, University of Tennessee College of Nursing\, Knoxville-Moderator: Liz Seegert\, AHCJ core topic leader/aging 1:50-2:10 p.m.Breakout room with session speakers 2:10-2:20 p.m.Break 2:20-3:50 p.m.Added challenges in mental health-Jacqueline Gray\, Ph.D.\, associate director for indigenous programs\, Center for Rural Health\, University of North Dakota School of Medicine & Health Sciences-Tiffany Haynes\, Ph.D.\, co-director\, Translational Research Institute\, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences-Moderator: Katti Gray\, AHCJ core topic leader/mental health 3:50-4:10 p.m.Breakout room with session speakers 4:10-4:20 p.m.End of day and thank you for participating\n\n\n\n\n\nHost\n\n\n\n\nUniversity of North Dakota\n\n\n\n\nSponsors\n\n\n\n\nThe Commonwealth Fund\n\n\n\nThe Leona M. and Harry B.
