<div style='text-align:Left;'><div><div><p><span>Overview: The rational service areas (RSAs) are defined to represent local healthcare markets and used as the basic units to evaluate whether people have access to health resources. An RSA is intended to represent the geographic area surrounding a physician's office, a hospital or a clinic, and from which the residents may be reasonably expected to seek health care from the physician, hospital or clinic located within the area. In Montgomery County, the RSAs are composed of census tracts, enabling the layer to be created by performing a dissolve on the census tract layer. HHS staff receive a table from Maryland Primary Care office that can be joined with census tracts to then perform a dissolve to create the RSA layer.</span></p><p><span>Point of Contact: Chunfu Liu of DHHS</span></p><p><span>Update Frequency: As needed, likely following release of new Census Tracts each decennial census</span></p></div></div></div> |
