Spatial Accessibility of Primary Care in England: A Cross‐Sectional Study Using a Floating Catchment Area Method

Abstract: This study showed substantially differing GP accessibility throughout England. However, socially deprived areas did not have poorer spatial access to GPs.

“…Most deprived area and least deprived area have significant non linear association with the spatial accessibility (Todd et al, 2015). As the value of deprived area went higher the spatial accessibility (= 0.533, p <.001) also would go higher (Bauer et al, 2017).…”

“…Integrated floating catchment method combine several variations of floating catchment method including enhanced 2-step-floating-catchment method and modified 2 step floating catchment method (Bauer et al, 2017). Through this variation several catchment areas were introduced, distance decay is applied within the catchment area and competition parameter which demands along with available physician (Bauer et al, 2017).…”

“…Recent developments in spatial accessibility methods, in the form of two‐step floating catchment area (2SFCA) techniques and more recent iterations such as Enhanced 2SFCA (E2SFCA) formulations, permit the calculation of a single measure that accounts for the interaction between service supply capacity and potential demand volume within a designated travel time (or distance) threshold (Luo & Qi, ). Such floating catchment area (FCA) tools are increasingly being used in different health contexts to investigate variations in access to a wide range of health services such as GP surgeries (Bauer, Müller, Brüggmann, & Groneberg, ; Tang, Chiu, Chaing, Su, & Chane, ), hospitals (Mao & Nekorchuk, ; Nakamura, Nakamura, Mukuda, Harada, & Kotani, ) and cancer screening services (Dai, ). However, to our knowledge, no study to date has adopted these approaches to investigate spatial variations in accessibility to GP surgeries that offer appointment times outside of ‘core’ hours.…”

“…FCA techniques have recently been used to study spatial accessibility to primary health care (Bauer, Müller, Brüggmann, & Groneberg, 2017;Langford, Higgs, & Fry, 2016), food stores (Chen, 2017), libraries (Guo, Chan, & Yip, 2017), green spaces (Xing, Liu, Liu, Wei, & Mao, 2018), and sporting infrastructure (Higgs, Langford, & Norman, 2015). However, very few studies to date have applied E2SFCA to examine the spatial implications of variations in access to childcare or wider educational opportunities.…”
