Abstract

The purpose of this document is to assist public health professionals, community leaders and other health care providers in understanding the link that transportation plays in enabling Iowans to access health care services. Transportation is an important health care issue. It touches us in every aspect of life by way of how we access where we eat, work, live and play. In the report, Understanding Community Health Needs in Iowa, an analysis of the state’s Community Health Needs Assessment and Health Improvement Plan (CHNA&HIP), 41 counties identified access to transportation as one of their top 10 health needs.
