“…The current study is noteworthy in that it investigated all four components of HDs found in the literature. A description of these four HD variables can be found in Table 1. Access to healthcare is the most frequently studied HD in rural communities (Blazer, Landerman, Fillenbaum, Homer, 1995;Stamm, Lambert, Piland, & Speck, 2007).
