Virtual providers, via contingency staffing visits, may be associated with lower provider and staff burnout in primary care, but only when clinics are not fully staffed with in-person providers. https://t.co/GAhofJgGkZ @EricApaydin

ICYMI: "In general, most published studies of comparisons of quality of care show that Veterans getting care from VA get the same or better quality care than Veterans getting VA-paid community care or the general public getting non-VA care."

🚨 New burnout paper! 🚨 Engaged primary care providers and staff were less likely to be burned out during the early pandemic despite COVID-19 burden and telehealth use.

[Eric Apaydin @EricApaydin]

Our new paper shows that telework is related to lower burnout in some medical specialties, including primary care. #burnout #primarycare #telework

[JAMA Network Open @JAMANetworkOpen]

Higher rates of burnout reported by physicians who were unapproved to telework (despite being able to work remotely) than full-time teleworkers, especially in primary care. https://t.co/e7SaOamrRk v@lucindaleungmd @vahsrd @va_cshiip @ucla_gimhsr
