The purpose of this study is to assess the impact and sustainability of rural health consortia that received grant support under the Federal Rural Health Outreach Grant Program (RHOGP) in FY97 and FY94. For the purpose of this study, rural health consortia are defined as those organizational arrangements composed of three or more separately owned health and health-related service organizations supported under the RHOGP. Specific attention will be given to the identification of organizational best practices that have allowed grantees to continue in their collaborative efforts to meet the needs of rural communities.
