The authors appreciate the correspondence from Likosky and Josephson informing us of the publication of the "Survey of current neurohospitalist practice" data in Neurology: Clinical Practice.1 These data were erroneously cited as "unpublished data, 2011" in Part 3 of our series "How neurologists are paid."2 In addition, 14.7% of neurologists self-described themselves as neurohospitalists rather than 16% mentioned in our manuscript.
Disclosures: P.D. Donofrio serves on scientific advisory boards for CSL Behring, UCB CellTech, and Baxter; has received funding for travel or speaker honoraria from Talecris Pharmaceuticals; serves on the editorial board of Muscle & Nerve; receives research support from CSL Behring; and has received honoraria from the AAN for speaking activities and serving on committees.
