Abstract

The influence of the introduction of a health care delivery system on mortality due to cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in Campbell County, Tenn., was explored in this study. The general hypothesis investigated is that access to health care is likely to result in earlier detection of CVD, more regular supervision, and a reduction in the number of details due to CVD.
