Evaluation of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Southern Rural Access Program
This project will implement a comprehensive evaluation and monitoring system for the Robert Wood Johnson Southern Rural Access Program. The Southern Rural Access Program is a long-term effort to improve access to basic health care in selected rural areas of eight southern states: Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, West Virginia, and east Texas. These eight states have received funds from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to develop a cadre of rural health professional leaders, improve the flow of health care professionals into rural areas, develop networks among rural health care organizations and create revolving loan programs to support innovative projects that expand access to health care in rural areas. The states have moved ahead with varying timetables in their planning and implementation, however, the structure of an effective evaluation can be put into place during the first half of 2000. The evaluation project will make use of the planning work that has been supported by the Foundation through the calendar year 1999. The implementation of the evaluation will begin March 1, 2000 and continue through February 29, 2004.
