Since 1997, the Health Policy department has facilitated the socioeconomic survey, which is disseminated to all members (excluding military, retirees, and those in training). A great tool that provides the Academy and its membership with important information about their practices, the healthcare environment, and future trends in otolaryngology–head and neck surgery, the AAO-HNS Socioeconomic Survey is the most recognized otolaryngology specific member survey available. It is an asset for otolaryngologist–head and neck surgeons to measure themselves against their peers.
