Economic Contribution Reports
The importance of the health care sector to local economies is presented in these reports that estimate the economic contribution and the economic potential of the health care sector on the local economy. The Office of Local Government and K-State Research and Extension created a report for each Kansas county. Funding for these April 2021 reports was provided by the Kansas Hospital Association. New reports will be available in 2023.
Media release for each county also are available. Please direct questions to Cindy Samuelson, Kansas Hospital Association, (785) 233-7436.
In addition to these county reports, a statewide economic impact report is conducted in cooperation with the Institute for Policy & Social Research at the University of Kansas.
