According to the Center for Disease Control in Atlanta, Georgia, the average TBI incidence rate (including both hospitalization and mortality rate) is 95 per 100,000 people. Each year over 80,000 Americans survive a hospitalization for traumatic brain injury, but are released with TBI-related disabilities. Approximately 5.3 million Americans today live with a TBI-related disability.
