Request for Public Comment on Use of
Rural Urban Commuting Areas
(RUCAs)
Health Resources and Services
Administration, HHS.
SUMMARY: The Health Resources and
Services Administration’s (HRSA)
Office of Rural Health Policy (ORHP)
has sought to identify clear, consistent,
and data-driven methods of defining
rural areas in the Metropolitan counties
of the United States. ORHP has funded
development of Rural-Urban
Commuting Area (RUCA) codes as the
latest version of the Goldsmith
Modification. HRSA is seeking
comments on ORHP’s use of RUCAs to
better target Rural Health funding and
projects. While other agencies of HHS
may choose to adopt ORHP’s definition
of ‘‘rural’’ there is no requirement that
they do so and they may choose other,
alternate definitions that best suit their
program requirements.

Background
The Office of Rural Health Policy
(ORHP) was authorized by Congress in
December 1987 in Public Law 100–203
and located in the Health Resources and
Services Administration (HRSA).
Congress charged the Office with
informing and advising the Department
of Health and Human Services on
matters affecting rural hospitals and
health care and coordinating activities
within the Department that relate to
rural health care.
The fiscal year (FY) 1991
appropriation allocated funds for Health
Services Outreach Grants in rural areas.
The FY 1991 Senate Appropriations
Committee Conference Report stated
that these grants were intended for
‘‘outreach to populations in rural areas
that do not normally seek health or
mental health services.’’
With the creation of the Rural Health
Outreach Grant Program, HRSA
assumed the responsibility of
determining eligibility for the grants. In
1991, there were two principal
definitions of ‘‘rural’’ that were in use
by the Federal Government. The oldest
was the Census Bureau definition,
which defined ‘‘rural’’ as all areas that
were either not part of an urbanized area
or were not part of an incorporated area
of at least 2,500 persons. Urbanized
areas were defined as densely settled
areas with a total population of at least
50,000 people. The building block of
urbanized areas is the census block, a
sub-unit of census tracts.
The other major Federal definition in
use was based on the Office of
Management and Budget’s (OMB) list of
counties that are designated as part of a
Metropolitan Area. All counties that
were not designated as Metropolitan
were considered ‘‘rural’’ or, more
accurately, non-metropolitan.
Metropolitan Areas, in 1990, had to
