Overcoming Challenges as a Critical Access Hospital in Rural Michigan with Tim Johnson

Oct 30, 2025

Episode Description

Leading rural hospitals has become a challenging pursuit for this generation of CEOs. We’re facing drastic funding cuts, policies that threaten healthcare sustainability, and a country that has been gradually losing its trust in the field of health and science. Tim is here to share the lessons he’s learned as the CEO of Eaton Rapids Medical Center. We’ll talk about how we support our communities, navigating increasingly political landscapes, and of course, what it all has to do with rural health.
