You face the same regulations, but have fewer resources to meet them.

As a small or critical access hospital, your organization deals with the same regulations as larger hospitals—from managing advanced practice professionals to assessing the competency of low-volume providers. The big difference is: you have fewer resources to work with.

Get the help you need from our budget-friendly Webcast series.

Join HCPro and The Greeley Medical Staff Institute for a four-part Webcast series, available on CD or on-demand, designed exclusively for small and critical access hospitals. These expert-developed, affordable programs were created with your specific needs in mind. We surveyed MSPs at hospitals like yours to determine the greatest challenges, and then our Greeley experts created tailored solutions that can be easily implemented on smaller budgets with the help of fewer medical staff members.

You can purchase all 4 programs individually for $199 each, or you can buy the package of 4 for just $489. That’s a savings of more than $300!

Your community counts on you, and you can count on us.
