Impact of travel time to health facilities on perinatal outcomes
Background: Evidence-based global guidance on safe travel time for small or sick newborns who require transfer to health facilities after birth is lacking. A two-hour threshold is frequently cited in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), while 30 minutes is commonly used in high-income countries (HICs). Although these thresholds are widely referenced, their empirical basis and consistency across levels of newborn care and journey types have n…
Rural–urban disparities in primary care and geographic continuity of care for children with medical complexity
PURPOSE: Rural-residing children with medical complexity (CMC) may receive fragmented care given clinician shortages in rural communities. This study characterized differences in continuity of care between rural- and urban-residing CMC, applying novel measures of geographic care continuity and assessing associations between continuity, neighborhood social disadvantage, and unplanned hospital utilization. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study a…
Rural–urban disparities in health care delivery for children with medical complexity and moderating effects of payer, disability, and community poverty
PURPOSE: Children with medical complexity (CMC) may be at increased risk of rural-urban disparities in health care delivery given their multifaceted health care needs, but these disparities are poorly understood. This study evaluated rural-urban disparities in health care delivery to CMC and determined whether Medicaid coverage, co-occurring disability, and community poverty modified the effects of rurality on care delivery. METHODS: This retrosp…
The Relationship Between Regional Growth in Neonatal Intensive Care Capacity and Perinatal Risk
BACKGROUND: The supply of US neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) beds and neonatologists is known to vary markedly across regions, but there have been no investigation of patterns of recent growth (1991-2017) in NICUs in relation to newborn need. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that greater growth in NICU capacity occurred in neonatal intensive care regions with higher perinatal risk. RESEARCH DESIGN: A longitudi…
Role of Prices, Utilization, and Health in Explaining Texas Medicaid Newborn Care Spending Variation
BACKGROUND: Newborn care is one of the most frequent types of hospitalization and Medicaid covers over 50% of all births nationwide. However, little is known about regional variation in Medicaid newborn care spending and its drivers. OBJECTIVES: To measure the contribution of market-level prices, utilization, and health risk on regional variation in spending among newborn Medicaid population in Texas. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: The study used 2…
Regional Variation of Cost of Care in the Last 12 Months of Life in Switzerland
BACKGROUND: Health care spending increases sharply at the end of life. Little is known about variation of cost of end of life care between regions and the drivers of such variation. We studied small-area patterns of cost of care in the last year of life in Switzerland. METHODS: We used mandatory health insurance claims data of individuals who died between 2008 and 2010 to derive cost of care. We used multilevel regression models to estimate diffe…
Influence of Place of Residence in Access to Specialized Cancer Care for African Americans
CONTEXT: Disparities in cancer care for rural residents and for African Americans have been documented, but the interaction of these factors is not well understood. PURPOSE: The authors examined the simultaneous influence of race and place of residence on access to and utilization of specialized cancer care in the United States. METHODS: Access to specialized cancer care was measured using: (1) travel time to National Cancer Institute (NCI) Cance…
Access to Cancer Services for Rural Colorectal Cancer Patients
Context: Cancer care requires specialty surgical and medical resources that are less likely to be found in rural areas. Purpose: To examine the travel patterns and distances of rural and urban colorectal cancer (CRC) patients to 3 types of specialty cancer care services—surgery, medical oncology consultation, and radiation oncology consultation. Methods: Descriptive cross‐sectional study using linked Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (S…
Reducing Avoidable Deaths Among Veterans
Objectives. We quantified older (65 years and older) Veterans Health Administration (VHA) patients’ use of the private sector to obtain 14 surgical procedures and assessed the potential impact of directing that care to high-performance hospitals. Methods. Using a merged VHA–Medicare inpatient database for 2000 and 2001, we determined where older VHA enrollees obtained 6 cardiovascular surgeries and 8 cancer resections and whether private-sector c…
Accessibility of Family Planning Services
Geographic Access to Family Planning Facilities and the Risk of Unintended and Teenage Pregnancy
Fault Lines
South Africa has experienced one of the world's most dramatic political transformations. David Goodman, a journalist and activist who has witnessed South Africa's struggles since the darkest days of apartheid, chronicles the historic transition from apartheid to democracy. This compelling story is told through the lives of four pairs of South Africans who have experienced apartheid from opposite sides of the racial and political divide. Taken tog…
The distance to community medical care and the likelihood of hospitalization
OBJECTIVES: This study examined the influence that distance from residence to the nearest hospital had on the likelihood of hospitalization and mortality. METHODS: Hospitalizations were studied for Maine. New Hampshire, and Vermont during 1989 (adults) and for 1985 through 1989 (children) and for mortality (1989) in Medicare enrollees. RESULTS: After other known predictors of hospitalization (age, sex, bed supply, median household income, rural r…

Geographic Barriers to Child Health Services in Rural Northern New England
Despite substantial recent increases in the number of rural physicians, it is unknown whether rural children still face significant barriers to medical care. To address this question, we determined travel times in 1980 and in 1989 to child health services for the rural pediatric population of northern New England–the area with the highest per‐capita primary care physician supply of any non‐metropolitan region in the United States. The study popul…
