Guaranteeing quality, affordable and accessible healthcare for South Dakotans has always been a priority of mine.  Rural states such as South Dakota face great challenges in providing these types of services in rural communities.  As a member of the Senate Rural Health Caucus, I have worked with my Senate colleagues, from both political parties, to address the unique needs.  I will continue to push for greater equity for rural patients and providers, so that all South Dakotans have access to a strong healthcare system.
