## Inside this Special Report

Recent studies have concluded that electronic health records (EHR) are a leading factor in physician burnout due to the increased clerical burden and reduced efficiency associated with them. Like many other healthcare issues, preventing physician burnout is cheaper and safer than managing the downstream consequences.
