Our plan is to extend it from the existing 30 to 36 sometime in the next quarter or two. Research Triangle will definitely be included. As it is, the LMPI provides a great leading indicator of near-term demand in 30 of the largest healthcare labor markets in the country. Cheers!

How good an index is this if it doesn't include such an important center of medical work?
