The report, part of the group s Gun Policy in America initiative to measure the impacts of firearm legislation, found that based on data available on gun injuries, roughly 550,000 people were treated for gunshot wounds at hospitals over the 16-year period. While the think tank noted that the information on nationwide gunshot wound hospitalizations is limited, as there is no comprehensive national database of gunshot injuries, Tuesday s report follows previous studies indicating that a substantial amount of health care funds are being spent to treat victims of gun violence.
