When Small Gets Tough: Digital Health in Resource-Thin Environments

In rural healthcare, scale challenges come from the opposite direction, fewer people, tighter budgets, limited connectivity, and higher vulnerability. This session brings together rural leaders and innovators to explore how basic digital health functions become harder, not easier, with less: cybersecurity, virtual care, interoperability, workforce enablement, and data modernization. Learn how rural systems are solving big problems with small teams and redefining innovation at the edges of care.
