Summary: If you get sick or injured in Texas – you’d best do it in the city. Texas rural health care is in crisis. In the last three years 15 rural hospitals have closed their doors and more are expected to follow suit. This leaves a highly vulnerable population without quick access to health care and emergency treatment. David Pearson is trying to find a way to reverse the trend. Pearson is the president/CEO of the Texas Organization of Rural and Community Hospitals.
