Rural hospital challenges
Declining patient census
Rural hospitals are facing a decline in patient volume, as more and more people are choosing to receive care at larger, urban hospitals. This is due to a number of factors, including the aging population, the increasing availability of telemedicine, and the perception that urban hospitals offer higher quality care.
Lack of resources
Rural hospitals often lack the resources that are available to urban hospitals, such as specialized equipment, qualified staff, and financial support. This can make it difficult for rural hospitals to provide quality care and stay afloat financially.
Lack of outpatient programs
Rural hospitals often lack the resources to offer a full range of outpatient services, which can force patients to travel long distances for care. This can be difficult for patients who are elderly, have disabilities, or do not have reliable transportation.
Let's work together to overcome these challenges.

Case Study
Rural Hospital in Kentucky
We were able to add a minimum of 3,000 profitable monthly outpatient visits to our hospital census in 60 days after engaging JPA. This was a significant increase from our previous average of ZERO monthly outpatient visits.
Since engaging JPA, projected gross revenue has increased by 10x. This is based on our average monthly revenue over the same period.
JPA has expanded its services to include long-term care, inpatient psychiatric care, and post-rehab services. Specifically, we have implemented a geriatric long-term care program, will open a 12-bed geriatric psych unit, and restructured our in-house lab.
