The purpose of this project is to produce rapid response descriptive analyses at the request of the Federal Office of Rural Health Policy regarding obstetric services at rural hospitals and maternity care in rural communities. This project will inform policy to support access to maternity care, and will include the creation of a publicly available, downloadable csv format dataset on availability of hospital-based obstetric care, by county, 2010-2023.
