Title: Urban and rural differences in coronavirus pandemic preparedness - Peterson-KFF Health System Tracker

URL: https://www.healthsystemtracker.org/brief/urban-and-rural-differences-in-coronavirus-pandemic-preparedness/

Collection: Global Health Events web archive

Description: This brief analyzes variation in hospital bed capacity by region in the U.S. and by metro/non-metro status, and examines metro and non-metro differences in the share of the population that is at increased risk of COVID-19 due to age or health status. Non-metro areas are largely rural, and, even prior to the pandemic, face different challenges in health system capacity, including further travel times for patients and provider shortages.

Title: How prepared is the US to respond to COVID-19 relative to other countries? - Peterson-KFF Health System Tracker

URL: https://www.healthsystemtracker.org/chart-collection/how-prepared-is-the-us-to-respond-to-covid-19-relative-to-other-countries/

Collection: Global Health Events web archive

Description: A surge in patients with the new coronavirus disease (COVID-19) would challenge the ability of the U.S. healthcare system to treat all patients, including those in need of care for other conditions. The charts on this web page, developed with the Peterson Center on Healthcare, highlight available cross-national data on the healthcare workforce, hospital resources, and at-risk populations in select countries. Additional charts explore coverage and affordability barriers that may limit access to care or cause serious financial burden for those needing COVID-19 treatment.
