A new survey from Medscape took a closer look at the fourth element of the Quadruple Aim: provider well-being.

Approximately 15,000 physicians from 29 specialties took part in the survey.

Among respondents, 42 percent said they were burned out. Twelve percent reported colloquial depression (or what Medscape described as โ€œfeeling downโ€ depression). And 3 percent said they were clinically depressed.

Pathologists, dermatologists and plastic surgeons were least likely to experience burnout. Perhaps this isnโ€™t altogether surprising, as these specialties arenโ€™t as likely to work in emergency situations.
