About The Study: Significant rates of financial hardship exist among U.S. health care workers. At least 1 measure of food insecurity was reported by 1 in 4 direct care/support workers and 1 in 10 health technologists/technicians; these rates exceed prior reports, perhaps reflecting worsening hardship.
