Abstract

This health service guide aids rural decisionmakers in the Great Plains in planning needed health services for their area. By following the guide, rural planners can estimate the number of doctors their area can support; the number of cases by age group, sex, and disease that a local hospital could expect each year, and the average bed days required for treatment; the annual use an emergency room might receive; and the number of expected annual calls for ambulance service.
