Abstract

Key findings: (1) 11.4 million people faced some degree of deterioration in geographic access to emergency care between 2001 and 2005. (2) Residents in rural communities have poorer access to emergency depart­ments at baseline and experienced a greater decline in emergency depart­ment access than those living in urban communities between 2001 and 2005. (3) Deteriorating access to emergency departments is more likely to occur in communities with economic hard­ship and high shares of Hispanic populations, as well as in rural areas that are part of a designated health professional shortage area.

2001年至2005年,普通人群和弱势人群急诊就诊情况的变化。
主要发现:(1)2001年至2005年期间,1140万人在获得急诊服务的地理位置上面临一定程度的恶化。(2) 2001 - 2005年,农村社区居民在基线时获得急诊科的机会比城市社区居民更少,急诊科的机会下降幅度更大。(3)在经济困难和西班牙裔人口比例较高的社区,以及属于指定卫生专业人员短缺地区的农村地区,急诊就诊机会恶化的可能性更大。
