Heathcare Forum: Frontline Perspectives + Q&A
Concerns over healthcare is one of the biggest challenges facing residents in Richmond and across Rhode Island. Access to healthcare is becoming challenging, and costs for healthcare are rising across income levels. To help residents better understand these issues, RDTC is hosting a Healthcare Forum on Wednesday, September 17th at 7 pm at the Carolina Fire Station in Richmond.
We've gathered a panel of experts in Rhode Island healthcare to provide updates on current healthcare issues and to help answer your questions. We're excited to be joined by Dr. Michael Fine, Ms. Alison Croke, and Dr. Betty Rambur to share their insights and explain current challenges. This forum is open to all members of the public.
We are also putting together a collection of questions in advance to ask during the Q&A. If you have a question for the panel, please reply to this email.
We're excited for this opportunity! We hope you'll be able to join us!
