| Title: | Economic Tools for Rural Health Planning |
| Authors: | Doeksen, Gerald A. |
| Issue Date: | 2007 |
| Series/Report no.: | Conference Paper |
| Abstract: | The full contribution of hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, etc to the rural economy often goes unrecognized. Quality health services are needed to attract businesses, and required for rural populations with a high proportion of elderly. This paper will share economic tools which can be used in any country to assist rural leaders in maintaining and advancing their health services. More specifically:
1. Health impact model to measure the economic impact of the health sector on a local economy
2. Community engagement tool to evaluate local health services; and
3. Health budget tools to determine the feasibility of a specific health service. |
