Intervention without Infrastructure: The Challenge of Managing Chronic Disease in Rural America

In this session, Dr. Cheng examines the systemic barriers to managing chronic disease through the lens of evidence-based guidelines. Drawing on his experience in clinical practice, rural health education, and digital health leadership, he will explore how geographic isolation, workforce shortages, and socio-economic factors intersect to create the “Rural Health Paradox.” Participants will analyze the transition from traditional “volume-based” care to innovative, tech-enabled transformation models such as the hub-and-spoke and Project ECHO and eConsults to bridge the gap between urban standards and rural realities. Attendees will leave with actionable strategies for implementing high-level medical consensus in resource-constrained settings to improve health equity.
