Background: Many evidences suggesting that hiring more hospitalists could result in cost savings, higher quality of care, and superior treatment outcomes[1-3]. Despite the benefits of introducing hospitalists in the hospitals, solely focusing on their productivity can potentially bring burnout and stress, even psychiatric symptoms, to them[4-8]. Recognizing and addressing the burnout and psychiatric symptoms of […]

Background: Consistent with national reports, post-pandemic burnout rates for the >100 hospitalist faculty at our institution were noted to be disproportionally high relative to the department1. Hospitalists engage in a wide range of non-clinical work including QI projects and committees embedded in the structure of efficient and high-quality inpatient care2.

Background: Clinicians spend nearly half of their time at work on clinical documentation, impacting time spent with patients and trainees. Studies have demonstrated a correlation with electronic health record (EHR) documentation burden and clinician burnout. Finding innovative ways to balance increasing EHR demands and mitigate this burden is essential. Purpose: We identified that time spent […]

Background: Health information technology (HIT) systems, though designed to improve clinical workflow efficiency, have ironically contributed to clinician burnout, especially among hospitalists who depend on these systems for patient care and coordination (Adler-Milstein 2020). Addressing these challenges requires a detailed, resource-intensive process to identify workflow inefficiencies. Because this process is difficult, it is often performed […]
