The Rural Wisconsin Chronic Disease Toolkit was initially developed as part of the Rural Wisconsin Health Cooperative (RWHC) Primary Care Improvement Project, a HRSA Network Development Grant-funded collaboration between RWHC, participating RWHC member hospitals, the Wisconsin Collaborative for Healthcare Quality (WCHQ), and other partner organizations.
The Toolkit is a compendium of rurally relevant best practices that have been shown to be effective in improving chronic disease outcomes. Contents include resources for Diabetes Care, Blood Pressure Control, Effective Teams and Communication, and Care Coordination, among others. The toolkit was last updated in April 2022 and will continue to be updated over time with additional resources as they become available.
