Objective: This study aimed to measure the changes in rural hospital bypass for 11 common elective surgeries following the implementation of the Pennsylvania Rural Health Model (PARHM), a global budget payment model.

We conducted a comparative interrupted time series analysis to assess changes in rural hospital bypass, comparing trends in rural hospital bypass among patients in hospital service areas (HSAs) with PARHM-participating hospitals to patients in control HSAs with hospitals eligible for but not participating in PARHM.
