Geographic distance to Commission on Cancer‐accredited and nonaccredited hospitals in the United States
PURPOSE: The Commission on Cancer (CoC) establishes standards to support multidisciplinary, comprehensive cancer care. CoC-accredited cancer programs diagnose and/or treat 73% of patients in the United States. However, rural patients may experience diminished access to CoC-accredited cancer programs. Our study evaluated distance to hospitals by CoC accreditation status, rurality, and Census Division. METHODS: All US hospitals were identified from…
Locations of Covid‐19 vaccination provision
PURPOSE: Our goal was to compare locations of COVID-19 vaccine provision in urban and rural communities over the course of the pandemic. METHODS: We used the Iowa Immunization Registry Information System (IRIS) to identify the organizations providing COVID-19 vaccines (eg, pharmacies, public health departments, and medical providers). Proportions of first-dose vaccines by organization type and patient census-based statistical area were generated.…
The Use of Medical Claims Data for Identifying Missed Opportunities for HPV Immunization Among Privately Insured Adolescents in the State of Iowa
Rural and urban differences in perceptions, behaviors, and health care disruptions during the Covid‐19 pandemic
PURPOSE: The objective of this study was to assess perceptions, health behaviors, and disruptions related to the COVID-19 pandemic in a largely rural, Midwestern state, and to examine differences between rural and urban respondents. METHODS: A questionnaire was mailed August 2020 to a sample of 10,009 registered voters in Iowa ages 18-100 years, with oversampling from 6 select rural counties. Previously validated and tested items assessed COVID-1…
Differences in Travel Time to Cancer Surgery for Colon versus Rectal Cancer in a Rural State
PURPOSE: Rectal cancer is rarer than colon cancer and is a technically more difficult tumor for surgeons to remove, thus rectal cancer patients may travel longer for specialized treatment compared to colon cancer patients. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether travel time for surgery was different for colon versus rectal cancer patients. METHODS: A secondary data analysis of colorectal cancer (CRC) incidence data from the Iowa Cancer …
