Recruiting Team Members is Expensive
Physician burnout is a major predictor of physician turnover, which has a high cost. At Stanford Medicine, replacing a physician who leaves because of burnout can cost at least $250,000. So addressing the organizational factors that contribute to burnout becomes more than just a question of helping physicians. It’s a matter of the bottom line. “Physicians who are experiencing burnout are more than twice as likely to leave their organization within two years,” said Maryam Hamidi, PhD. “This results in significant financial burden to academic medical centers and health care organizations.”
Enhance Workplace Satisfaction Immediately
Smart assignment provides for fair workloads and increased patient and provider satisfaction. From a psychological perspective it aligns patient care incentives and energizes emergency team members to get their jobs done more efficiently. Most provider users love it and say that they wouldn’t work anywhere else without this kind of system. Flex up and Flex down capabilities add to provider satisfaction as well. A provider is given the option to work extra or can take the day off early depending upon their preferences.
