Many hospitals reported critical staffing shortages over the course of the pandemic, particularly when case numbers were high. During the Omicron surge in January and February 2022, ASPE said the 7-day average of hospitals reporting critical staffing shortages peaked at 22% during mid-January 2022. A shortage in the health care workforce is also being forecast to continue for over the next decade. The Association of American Medical Colleges projected a shortage of between 37,800 and 124,000 physicians by 2034.
