Casey, Michelle M.Blewett, Lynn A.Call, Kathleen T.We examined case studies of 3 rural Midwestern communities to assess local health care systems’ response to rapidly growing Latino populations. Currently, clinics provide free or low-cost care, and schools, public health, social services, and religious organizations connect Latinos to the health care system. However, many unmet health care needs result from lack of health insurance, limited income, and linguistic and cultural barriers. Targeted safety net funding would help meet Latino health care needs in rural communities with limited resources.Access To HealthcarePracticerural Midwestern communitiesLatino populationshealth care systemunmet health care needslack of health insurancelimited incomelinguistic and cultural barriersArticle
