Poverty, health services, and health status in rural America.

D L Patrick1, J Stein, M Porta, C Q Porter, T C Ricketts.   

Abstract

Access to health services for everyone has been a major policy goal in the United States: inequitable access is assumed to lead to inequitable health status, particularly for low-income groups. A sophisticated model of the relation between poverty, health care needs, service use, and health outcomes is used to analyze cross-sectional data on 7,823 adults from 36 rural communities. Improved access and use are helpful, but evidence clearly indicates that combined health and social initiatives will be necessary to reduce inequalities in health status.
