Abstract:
This article analyzes the importance and effectiveness of several physician recruitment strategies in 60 short-term general hospitals in rural Minnesota. The results suggest that rural hospitals should continue to attract physicians with quality facilities and services, increase efforts to facilitate group practice opportunities, and rely less on direct financial incentives.
