For future editions of Nurses by the Numbers, ANA will be exploring data from The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), the U.S. Census and the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). ANA’s health economist, Dr. Peter McMenamin, pulled the information together and welcomes feedback on how this new resource can be improved. Send your feedback and suggestions to NBN@ana.org.
