While I did not see mention of Mr Size’s recent recognition by MODERN HEALTHCARE MAGAZINE’s as one of the nation’s 50 most influential health policy makers,it is very encouraging that rural health issues are are getting more and more public attention and prominent, qualified voices as the very important health reform dialogue starts.Not since 1965-66 has there been a greater opportunity for this healthcare sector to influence the Federal government in its policy formation and strategic re-direction and Wisconsin rural health care is well positioned to be a leading voice.
