Abstract:

A coalition of community members and human service professionals in the rural central Shenandoah Valley of Virginia has performed a community assessment every 5 years. Overreliance on quantitative surveys and hospital-based Community Health Needs Assessments resulted in earlier assessments failing to identify the needs of vulnerable populations. As the coalition approached the time for a new assessment, their priority was to develop a deeper understanding of community health needs and solutions.

Abstract:

To cope with the increasing healthcare costs brought about by the universal health insurance programme, national volume-based procurement (NVBP) was implemented in China to reduce drug prices. However, the impact of NVBP remains unknown. We reported the effects of the NVBP pilot programme on medication affordability and discussed the challenges and recommendations for further reforms. A total of 25 molecules won the bidding in the NVBP pilot programme, and price cuts ranged from 25% to 96%. Medication affordability was measured as the number of days’ wages needed to pay for a course of treatme

Abstract:

Many people in low-middle-income countries depend on household for health treatment cost. In Bangladesh, in the absence of a functional health insurance market, and a lack of coverage by existing health insurance schemes, most costs people bear are out-of-pocket. Therefore, understanding the economic burden of health treatment cost on households in Bangladesh is important. This is a relatively unexplored policy issue in Bangladesh. The aim of this study was to reveal treatment costs and socio economic pattern in a rural setting of Bangladesh. A descriptive type of cross-sectional study was con

Abstract:

A large body of literature has shown that the burden of healthcare can push individuals and households into the burden of medical care and income loss. This makes it difficult for rural or low-income households to obtain and use safe and affordable formal credit services. In 2003, China’s government implemented a new rural public health insurance, which was called the New Rural Cooperative Medical Scheme (NRCMS). This study provides evidence of the impact of NRCMS on household credit availability using the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) for 2010. The tobit regression approach and mediator m

Abstract:

We have reached far ahead today when it comes to the telemedicine technology which was first installed in Boston in 1967 that made a regular interaction between physicians and patients at distant locations. Being a developing and lower-middle income country, currently India faces shortage of doctors, nurses & midwives, and healthcare infrastructure. Around 70% of Indian population lives in remote and rural villages lacking access to basic healthcare facilities. In such situations telemedicine plays a great role in providing quality and affordable healthcare to India’s poorest people, and i

Abstract:

Development, individual, community, and national depends critically on their state of health. Primary Health care (PHC) is an anchor in health service delivery because it meets basic health requirements and promotes equitable access to medical treatment, especially in rural regions. Even while there are PHC facilities in rural regions, they are not being used to their full potential. Thus, this study investigates the factors militating against the utilization of Primary Health Care facilities in selected rural communities in Southwestern Nigeria.

Abstract:

Sustainable food systems are often defined by greenhouse gases, land use, effects on biodiversity, and water use. However, this approach does not recognize the reason food is produced—the provision of nutrients. Recently, the relationship between diets and sustainability has been recognized. Most accepted models of ‘sustainable diets’ focus on four domains: public health, the environment, food affordability, and cultural relevance. Aligned with the FAO’s perspective, truly sustainable diets comprise foods that are affordable, nutritious, developed with ingredients produced in an environmentall

Abstract The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have been felt globally affecting everyone, but have disproportionately harmed some of the most vulnerable and marginalized including individuals residing in rural and remote areas. The geographic isolation initially thought to protect rural and remote communities from the pandemic soon became a disadvantage, requiring individuals to navigate long-standing systemic barriers (e.g., lack of transportation issues, limited access to healthcare resources, and fragmented accessibility to vaccines), alongside the new challenges posed by COVID-19 restricti

Rural electrification not only provides affordable modern energy to rural households at a cheaper price but also improves the quality of life and economic development of the rural sector. The welfare gains of electricity are not the same across households. This paper tries to understand who benefits the most from rural electrification - the poor or the rich rural households. The differential effects of rural electrification on household income and expenditures on health and children’s education are estimated using the 2011-2012 IHDS-II survey data applying the quantile regression method.

Abstract:

Under the Affordable Care Act, individual states have discretion in how they define coverage regions, within which insurers must charge the same premium to buyers of the same age, family structure, and smoking status. We exploit variation in these definitions to investigate whether the size of the coverage region affects outcomes in the ACA marketplaces. We find large consequences for small and rural markets. When states combine small counties with neighboring urban areas into a single region, the included rural markets see 0.6 to 0.8 more active insurers, on average, and savings in annual pre
