Get ready to dive deep into healthcare innovation and network with rural hospital leaders at the 2026 Mid-South Critical Access Conference! This year’s conference, hosted by Mississippi, is August 5-7 in New Orleans.

The Mid-South Critical Access and Rural Hospital Conference was initiated more than two decades ago by state hospital associations from Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, and Tennessee. This conference brings together rural and critical access hospital (CAH) executive and clinical leaders from mid-South states to discuss critical issues affecting rural health.

Nearly 200 rural hospital executives and management teams, along with community leaders and agencies focused on rural issues, will convene at this premier event. You won’t want to miss this exciting opportunity to connect with fellow health care leaders and gain insights into the latest challenges and innovative strategies for rural hospitals.

The conference also provides sponsors with the opportunity to showcase their products or services and optimize their marketing exposure as supporters of mid-south critical access and rural hospitals.
