Geographic Disparities in Neurosurgery Workforce Adequacy Across the United States: Projections to 2037

Projected inadequacies exist for the neurosurgery workforce, which are greatest in nonmetropolitan areas and certain US states. Future research is needed to develop strategies that improve neurosurgery workforce adequacy including training opportunities to increase the supply of future neurosurgeons.

Abstract

Projected inadequacies exist for the neurosurgery workforce, which are greatest in nonmetropolitan areas and certain US states. Future research is needed to develop strategies that improve neurosurgery workforce adequacy including training opportunities to increase the supply of future neurosurgeons.
