The HRBN Metrics. 

There are close to sixty (60) metrics available to participants in the current HRBN survey.  The HRBN "package" of metrics is reviewed annually with participants.  Our objectives in that review are to keep the indicator selection both current and value-added for participants and address any need for clarification in formulas or supporting definitions.

​Network members also often provide feedback on new measurement areas to explore; many of these suggestions result in new indicators being added to the survey in subsequent years.
