摘要
This study determined differences in U.S. local health department (LHD) expenditures between I989 and I993 and examined the factors that were associated with those changes. Adjusted to constant I993 dollars, nearly half (48%) of the studied LHDs experienced budget decreases and 52% experienced budget increases. The median change in LHD budgets was 0.2% growth per year. Significant associations were found between the likelihood of a department experiencing a budget increase and several measures describing the LHD's administrative and economic environment.
