Rural Hospital Closures Put a Strain on Nearby Hospitals
CTSA Program–supported research reveals that rural hospital closures nationwide strain the ability of surrounding hospitals to care for the increase in patients. This ripple effect jeopardizes access to health care in rural communities.

Research at NCATS
NCATS research projects and initiatives focus on addressing scientific and technical challenges to reduce, remove, or bypass bottlenecks in the development of new treatments and tests that will ultimately improve human health. The Center studies translation on a system-wide level to accelerate the development of interventions for more than one disease.
Through its research initiatives, NCATS develops new approaches, technologies, resources, and models; demonstrates their usefulness in a specific disease or case study; and disseminates the data, analyses the methods to the larger scientific community.
