The Center for Rural Pennsylvania sponsored two research projects related to rural hospital finances in 2008. The first research project was conducted by researchers from Pennsylvania State University-Harrisburg and Shippensburg University of Pennsylvania. The goal of the research was to develop a comprehensive model for evaluating financial distress in general acute care hospitals in rural Pennsylvania. The second project, conducted by researchers from Pennsylvania State University, examined the financial performance of rural hospitals from a number of perspectives, including profitability, liquidity, efficiency and capital structure.
