This study sought to understand trends in rural obstetrical practice for rural Minnesota. A telephone survey of all rural Minnesota obstetrical providers was used to document the number, location, and specialty of rural obstetrical providers, their practice limitations, and plans for future practice. This data was combined with state perinatal statistics for each county to further assess obstetrical care availability and perinatal outcomes.
