Abstract:

This paper reports research investigating the proposition that local public funding for health care in rural areas of the U.S. is more extensive than previously recognized. County budget data were collected from all counties in nine predominantly rural states for the years 1997, 1999 and 2001. Findings 1)address the extent to which county tax expenditures are being used to fund local health care services in rural areas, 2)identify the factors that explain the extent to which counties will tax themselves to finance local health care services, and 3)examine which categories of services most commonly receive local public funding and under what conditions.
