Abstract
Some hospitals may be disadvantaged in the marketplace due to their location or lack of investment in technology. This study shows that these factors can strongly predict hospital performance. In addition, using a marketing strategy appears to be detrimental to rural hospitals, but is a viable strategy that may increase the performance of hospitals in urban areas.
