Take back control of uncompensated time

Physicians spend a significant amount of their workdays-probably 20% or more-on uncompensated tasks thanks to a barrage of regulatory requirements, says Joseph Valenti, MD, a board member of the Physicians Foundation, a nonprofit physician advocacy group.

“This equates to at least $50,000 of lost revenue per physician annually,” he says. “This magnitude of uncompensated time often leads to physician burnout and forces many physicians to close their practices.”
