The majority of physicians in a national survey said EHR information overload raises stress levels, and 30 percent said it contributes to clinician burnout.
While the majority of physicians report that their EHR helps them provide high-quality care, EHR information overload remains a challenge for clinician burnout, according to a survey from EHR vendor athenahealth conducted by The Harris Poll.
The annual Physician Sentiment survey polled 1,003 primary care and specialist physicians nationwide, with five percent of respondents identifying as athenahealth customers.
Nearly all physicians (94 percent) surveyed said that getting the right clinical data at the right time is very important. However, most physicians (80 percent) agreed that more clinical data is not always the key to higher-quality care.
