Abstract:
The objective of this study is to compare the quality of diabetes care provided to American Indians in urban Indian health programs with the primarily rural tribal and federally administered Indian health programs. We used national data from the 2002 audit to assess rural and urban differences in adherence to IHS quality-of-care guidelines and intermediate outcomes for diabetes care.
