Surgeons' EHR Usage Differs by Gender

JAMA Network

About The Study: This cross-sectional study of electronic health record (EHR) data found that female surgeons spent more time documenting patient encounters, wrote longer notes, and spent more time in the EHR system compared with male surgeons. These findings have important implications for understanding the differential burdens faced by female surgeons, including potential contributions to burnout and payment disparities.
