HaysMed is proud to announce that Eddie Herrman, HaysMed president and CEO, has been invited by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to participate in an exclusive in-person roundtable with Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
The event will take place at HHS headquarters in Washington, D.C. on Thursday, April 17.
This roundtable will provide a unique platform for hospital leaders to engage in meaningful discussions with Secretary Kennedy and HHS leadership. The focus will be on several critical topics that are vital to the healthcare community in Kansas, including strategies to reduce administrative burden, promoting continuity of care, and incentivizing coordination and innovation.
Herrman’s participation in this roundtable is a testament to his expertise in the field of healthcare and is a remarkable opportunity for HaysMed to be represented at a national level, showcasing the hospital’s commitment to innovation in advanced rural healthcare.
While the economic contributions of hospitals are substantial, the healthcare sector faces challenges, including workforce shortages, evolving regulatory landscapes, and financial pressures from uncompensated care. HaysMed continues to adapt by investing in workforce development, embracing technological advancements, and collaborating with community partners to address social determinants of health.
