The physician shortage and the aging population

By 2025, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services predicts that there will be a nationwide shortage of 90,000 physicians. Burnout, COVID, retirement and limits on medical school and residency programs are the main reasons for the shortage.

Compounding the problem is an aging population. The number of people aged 65 and older is projected to reach 83.7 million by 2050*.
