Characteristics of Homeless and Non-Homeless Individuals Using Inpatient and Emergency Department Services, 2008

Addressing the multidimensional health problems of homeless people is a challenge for public policymakers and health care providers. According to the National Coalition for the Homeless, approximately 3.5 million individuals in the United States are likely to experience homelessness in a given year. Based on the 2009 Homeless Annual Assessment Report to Congress, about 1.56 million people used an emergency shelter or a transitional housing program between October 1, 2008, and September 30, 2009.
