CUMBERLAND, MD โ May 12, 2026 โ Chris Nickerson, CEO of WellCheck, has been appointed to the Board of Directors of AHEC West, effective March 1, 2026.

In March 2026, the World Health Organization published a 104-page scoping review with a conclusion that should prompt every digital health platform to pause: equity is increasingly referenced in the design and deployment of health technology, but it is almost never measured after the fact.

A real-world example from AHEC West shows how coordinated referral infrastructure can resolve urgent social needs fasterโand deliver measurable outcomes for community health programs.

Rural Health Transformation initiatives require coordination across healthcare providers, community organizations, and workforce programs. The RHT Hub brings together resources to help organizations prepare for referral coordination, workforce development, and outcomes reporting.
