1) Bravo to Dr. @Bob_Wachter for highlighting such stats & promoting public dialog. Multi-layered-ness is substantive & important not to lose sight of. Can’t just “tech our way out of it” kinda thing. 2) an open tweet to all who are in positions to publish similar stats Thread🧵
More on crushing volume of #EHR in-box messages: @UCSFHospitals data shows that # of messages to our ambulatory clinicians is up 2x since '19, 5x since '16. Similar trends nationwide. It's unsustainable & requires a nuanced, multi-layered (tech, workflow, incentives...) solution.
