National Association of Medical Examiners (NAME)
Accredited Facilities

NOTE: The 40 currently accredited jurisdictions have a (1990) population of 59,914,804. Using the 1990 U.S. population for comparison, that yields the estimate that 24.1% of the U.S. live in accredited jurisdictions.

The 32 potential U.S. jurisdictions cited by the NAME Committee have a total (1990) population of 51,998,000. Were we to add all of those to the "accredited column" 45% of us would live in accredited jurisdictions.
