Abstract
Rural communities are a vital segment of the US population; however, these communities are shrinking, and their population is aging. Rural women experience health disparities including increased risk of maternal morbidity and mortality. In this article, we will explore these trends and their determinants both within and external to the health care system. Health care providers, public health professionals, and policymakers should be aware of these social and structural factors that influence health outcomes and take action to reduce generational cycles of health disparity. Opportunities to improve the health and pregnancy outcomes for rural women and rural populations are highlighted.
