Background: Burnout among hospital medicine providers is well known. Advanced practice providers (APPs) are well-established in hospital medicine but there is a lack of data on burnout specific to the physician-APP model. As more hospitalist groups staff a physician-APP model, identifying contributors to burnout is key for ensuring career sustainability. Our academic hospital medicine group […]

Background: Hospital Medicine (HM) practices have traditionally utilized an extended ‘7 on/7 off’ (7/7) schedule. Occupational Health studies suggest that such schedules can increase physiologic and psychologic stressors (Keller). Despite their prevalence, the effects of extended scheduling on physician well-being and performance are unknown. We sought to study the effect of 7/7 scheduling on well-being […]

Background: Women represent half of our new physicians being added to practice, however the growth of women in leadership positions has lagged. Women physicians have higher burnout scores and higher suicide rates than male physicians. Women physicians deliver high quality healthcare as evident in surgical, emergency medicine, and hospital based outcome studies. Studies suggest that […]

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: Healthcare provider burnout includes emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and diminished sense of personal accomplishment. No recent study assesses burnout among academic hospital medicine (HM) physicians. A 2011 study of hospitalists at 20 academic medical centers noted burnout near 25%. Few studies assess burnout among Advanced Practice Providers (APPs) which include Physician Assistants and Nurse Practitioners, […]

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. Building off literature in which […]
