Jan. 21 webinar on rural cancer prevention, control efforts - Entrepreneur Generations

Rural residents are more likely to get and die from cancer than their urban and suburban counterparts, and some rural areas have higher than normal rates of certain cancers because of environmental factors. The Rural Health Information Hub will host a free, one-hour webinar at 3 p.m. ET, Jan. 21, to discuss comprehensive, innovative and sustainable policies that can improve rural cancer treatment and prevention efforts.

Featured speakers will be:

• Paul Moore, D.Ph., Executive Secretary of the National Advisory Committee on Rural Health and Human Services, and Senior Health Policy Advisor at the Federal Office of Rural Health Policy.
• John Rochat, MD, an oncologist at Anderson Valley Health Center in Boonville, California.
• Peggy Wheeler, MPH, Vice President of Rural Health Care and Governance at the California Hospital Association.
