The United States faces a shortage of providers who care for homebound patients. About 5,000 primary care providers made 1.7 million home visits to Medicare fee-for-service beneficiaries in 2013, accounting for 70 percent of all home-based medical visits. Nine percent of these providers performed 44 percent of visits. However, most homebound people live more than thirty miles from a high-volume provider.
美国面临着照顾居家患者的医疗服务提供者短缺的问题。2013年，约5000名初级医疗服务提供者对医疗保险按服务收费的受益人进行了170万次家访，占所有上门医疗服务的70%。其中9%的提供者进行了44%的家访。然而，大多数居家患者居住在距离大量提供服务的机构超过30英里的地方。
