Resumo: 	This paper takes an empirical approach to determining the effect that a critical access hospital (CAH) has on local retail activity.  Previous research on the relationship between hospitals and economic development has primarily focused on single-case, multiplier oriented analysis.  The positive empirical results provide additional evidence on the far-reaching economic development impacts of CAHs.  The results also emphasize the importance of continued support for these rural institutions, including federal and state subsidies.
