Learning Objectives Access to patient care in neurology is at a critical point with an anticipated 19% shortfall of neurologists in 2025 and is magnified by a recent finding of 1 in every 3 people being affected by neurological condition globally. Another concern is timeliness of access. Long delays in seeing neurologists has a negative impact on patient care and increases emergency room visits. Our neurology workforce is struggling to meet access needs of patients. The American Academy of Neurology set up a Workforce Task Force to improve access and made recommendations that included teleneurology and incorporation of advanced practice providers (APPs). It is a top priority to provide consistent and reliable access to integrated, multispecialty, patient-centered care. In this course, we will discuss strategic approaches to improve access and provide timely care.
