Gov. Kathy Hochul announced a $1.3 billion grant funded by state Medicaid funds that will be used to bolster employment.
Right now, there are nearly 9,300 open nursing jobs in New York state that hospitals and ASCs are struggling to fill.
The $1.3 billion grant is intended for employers to offer retention and recruitment bonuses, and eligible employees will receive between $500 and $3,000.
At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
