Receipt of Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists Among Rural Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Excess Weight
Rural patients with OSA and excess weight were less likely to receive a GLP-1RA as compared to urban peers. This association was not mediated through drive time or drive distance to care. Further work is needed to understand the factors that contribute to rural-urban differences in healthcare delivery beyond geographic domains of access.
