Results & Statistics from Form 990

Of the 98 total facilities eligible for this study, 23 offered compensation for their interns. Eight of these offered stipends, seven offered an hourly wage, and eight did not specify the type of compensation. Nine of the facilities providing compensation also offered unpaid internships.
There was no significant difference between facilities with Compensated Intern Programs and facilities with Uncompensated Intern Programs in every category of revenue sources (p > 0.05) and every category of expenses, except for Occupancy (p = 0.043). The exact percentages are displayed in Table 1, and the data is visually presented in Figures 1 and 2.
