Health and Place, 05/08/09
Laditka JN et al. - The authors examined whether levels of rurality are associated with hospitalization for ambulatory care-sensitive conditions (ACSH) in eight states of the United States. ACSH is an indicator of access to reasonably effective primary health care. ACSH for children did not vary systematically with rurality. Compared to the most urban counties, the adjusted rate in the most rural was 90% greater for ages 18–64 and 45% greater for ages 65+ (both p<.001). Adjusted adult rates generally increased with the level of rurality.
