The data presented in Table 82 show the population that is and is not covered by a rural regional health care delivery center. These sites are limited to facilities with a minimum of four primary care practitioners, of which at least two are physicians.1 The data show the number of people living in a rural area, and the map (Figure 63) illustrates the geographic location of those living in rural areas not located within 50 minutes travel time of a regional health care facility. *Utah Department of Health.
