Case Study: Mercy Medical Center

The National Rural Health Association estimates that 80% of rural communities currently experience a shortage of doctors and qualified health professionals, with 2,157 Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSAs) in rural and frontier communities versus 910 HPSAs in urban areas. Recruitment and retention remain the top problems among rural healthcare facilities – an issue exacerbated by a recent decrease in government aid. Consequently, many rural hospitals have been forced to shut their doors and residents of these communities often must drive long distances to reach a provider – a dangerous reality in emergency situations.
