It's not a surprise that public health and policy researchers have found a wide disparity of health care provision in this country; what's a bit more of an eye opener is that the disparity is not only by race, but also by region. The Dartmouth Atlas of Health Care is a twenty-year-old project researching and documenting the distribution of medical resources in the United States. This is a great public access site, which not only has complied and made available all of the Atlas reports of the past 20 years, but also allows for interactive searches and analyses by region.
