The purpose of the AANP National NP Sample Survey (also known as the National Workforce Survey) is to identify NP employment characteristics, compensation and patient demographics. Each year, AANP members and nonmembers are randomly selected to participate in the survey. Those who complete the survey regardless of membership are provided access to the final report.

NP Practice

The 2018 AANP National NP Sample Survey: Practice report captures NP certification, practice communities, settings and characteristics, salary information, prescribing and diagnosis, NP education and demographics.

AANP conducted a brief survey to gather information on how COVID-19 has impacted NPs and NP practice, including testing needs, employment changes, treatment barriers and more. This information is essential as AANP works to address the challenges faced by NPs in the current environment, including advocating for the removal of practice barriers.
