Distance, Use of Resources, and Mortality Among Rural Missouri Residents With Acute Myocardial Infarction
Prompt access to medical services is considered critical in managing acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Several socioeconomic and geographic factors affect access to such care in rural areas. This study measured the effect of geographic distance from care on utilization of cardiovascular technology and death after AMI. The records of 1,658 rural Missouri residents age 65 or older with a discharge diagnosis of AMI in 1991 were obtained from Medica…
Rural Hospital Inpatient Surgical Volume
Surgical services are an important part of modern health care, but providing them to isolated rural citizens is especially difficult. Public policy initiatives could influence the supply, training, and distribution of surgeons, much as they have for rural primary care providers. However, so little is known about the proper distribution of surgeons, their contribution to rural health care, and the safety of rural surgery that policy cannot be shap…

In this study information about rural surgical providers and services was obtained through telephone interviews with administrators at Washington state's 42 rural hosp…

Ten hospitals (27%) paid local private practitioners to provi…
