Abstract

Physician burnout has reached epidemic proportions in the United States, and COVID-19 has only exacerbated the strain on the physician workforce. To gather data on organisation-level support for physician burnout prevention initiatives, the American Hospital Association, AdventHealth, and the Coalition for Physician Well-Being collected responses from more than 500 top-level executives from healthcare systems across the United States, documenting the current state of organisation-level interventions to support physician well-being. This paper discusses the findings, which revealed that organisational initiatives to curb physician burnout vary in scope and degree, but the need for organisation-level interventions appears to be widely recognised.
