Abstract | Included in this report on the Southern Rural Health Conference (held in Nashville, Tennessee in 1976) are: (1) an introduction (details the conference goals); (2) a program agenda; (3) "Summation: Southern Rural Health Conference" (a speech); (4) "Health Care and Rural Development" (a speech); (5) "Innovative Approaches to the Delivery of Primary Health Services in the Rural South" (a speech); (6) recommendations made by the conference task forces (Utilization of Primary Health Practitioners; Group Practice in Rural Areas; Student Organizations and Medical School Rural Health Activities; Innovative Governmental Programs; Environmental and Preventive Health; Education of Health Professionals in Rural Areas; Financing of Health Care; Minority and Women's Health Concerns; Health Planning and Resource Development; and Legal Implications and Problems); (7) a participant list (275 people attended the conference including rural health experts, members of health agencies, educators, legislators, doctors, primary health practitioners, and concerned citizens). Among the task force recommendations highlighted in the summary are: Medicare, Medicaid, private health insurance policies, and a national insurance program should cover primary health center services; health resources development should be tied directly to national health insurance; rural-urban inequities should be addressed by equalizing payments for services under public financing programs.
