As a practicing physician, I, like many others, can easily become overwhelmed by administrative burden and information overload. Seeing many patients in a matter of minutes, means I have limited time to digest relevant information from the patient chart that could positively impact the way I deliver personalized care. Every day, clinicians search through numerous tabs in the EHR to gather data before seeing patients —reviewing new labs, notes, and telephone encounters. This leaves less time for patient encounters and even less time to research evidence-based care based on unique patient experiences. This discrepancy between best practice and care delivered, coupled with lots of wasted physician time, leads to suboptimal patient outcomes.
