it's not just access to healthcare, it's time, convenience, effort, whatever.

an impoverished single-parent 4 member family will not have time to exploit whatever medical care options are made available to them. this time deficit is one of the more common characteristics that impoverished families have in common.

lack of opportunity for time management.
