This study has considered the predisposing and enabling traits associated with the access to and use of health care services by the inhabitants of four rural villages in NingMing County, GuangXi Zhuang Autonomous Region (PRC). The methods employed utilized classical anthropological techniques and a version of rapid assessment procedures known as focused ethnographic studies (FES). Drawing on a sample of 893 individuals chosen through preferential random sampling, it was found that age, sex, income levels, and occupation of the subjects had little bearing on access and subsequent use of health care services in the region, once severity of illness was controlled for. Instead, the perceived level of sickness, interpretations of health and ill-health, and the quality of services available for the money expected, were found to be of higher priority to the end users of these services. As expenses were seen to be of utmost consequence, a new model considering less recognized or assessed factors such as the costs of travel, accommodations, and lost hours of labour, by people traveling to the health care units, and their accompanying parties, was developed. This model, has proven to be functional within the context of the group considered here, and with modification, to groups elsewhere in the world. Comparative data may now be derived, which can aid in the structure and development of effective and efficient health care services. The current fee-for-service system in place in NingMing County warrants use of such a model. It does not alleviate the costs, but instead aims at forming a better understanding of the current reluctance to use high cost services in this region.
