The problem with thinking wellness is the antidote to burnout is that that's fundamentally a mistake. The opposite of burnout is not wellness... it's professional fulfillment. We're not even shooting for the right goal. #FightBurnout

Thought experiment. Send EHR vendor CEO to medical school + residency. Then have said executive see patients using EHR w/ same volume + constraints we have -- indefinitely. How fast would things get better? #SkinInTheGame #FightBurnout

There’s a sickness in healthcare, and it’s called the executive salary — a salary that comes from extraction from care delivery. My take: most execs are way overpaid for how badly we are failing to achieve the quadruple aim.

In medicine we love to compare ourselves to the airlines. Well, this is what pilots do when they aren't getting their needs met. They organize.

Nearly half of Mass. General doctors feel burned out, according to the hospital’s own surveys. Burnout worsened after the 2016 rollout of a complex new EHR system, which demanded more time of doctors, even for simple tasks. #fightburnout

Patient documentation is a critical but tedious task for physicians, part of the mounting administrative burden that is driving many to exhaustion and burnout.

Putting an armful of #fightburnout shirts in the mail at the end of a LONG clinic day helps revitalize my optimism. Grateful for all my wonderful friends who inspire me & lift up my spirits 🤗

What makes me cranky about this piece is that nowhere in the solutions is talking about a plan for making primary care desirable / sustainable. Don’t want a doctor shortage? Fix the workplace! #FightBurnout 🔥

The doctor shortage is a growing problem across the U.S. But there was a time when the government, researchers, and medical professionals worried about a doctor surplus.

doctors don't need to be told to do yoga or meditate to #FightBurnout ; they need a system that values their devotion, offers proper training for disasters, and provides the protection and support they need to do what they do best: take care of patients

"Nearly three-quarters of surveyed physicians (74 percent) say the challenges of practicing medicine in today’s environment have caused them to consider career options outside of clinical practice." ...this is tragic! We must do better!! #fightburnout
