QuantiaMD Launches Physician Wellbeing Initiative

Waltham, Mass. January 24, 2012 - QuantiaMD, the medical learning network, announces the launch of an initiative addressing physician wellbeing. The new Physician Wellbeing Special Interest Group (SIG) provides educational content, expert advice, tools and services aimed at lowering the prevalence of physician burnout and mitigating its negative impact on patient care. The comprehensive initiative focuses on physicians' physical, mental, financial and social health and can be accessed at http://www.quantiamd.com/home/sig_physician_wellbeing.

QuantiaMD reached out to its physician members and found that almost half want to prioritize their wellbeing, but currently do not. Other industry studies have highlighted the growing prevalence of physician burnout and stress and the positive correlation between physician health and patient care outcomes. Physician work satisfaction has been decreasing due to factors such as less time available to spend with patients, greater administrative burden and the increasing difficulty of staying up-to-date on medical thinking. With new healthcare regulations placing greater pressure and accountability on physicians, it is vital that they continue to maintain a healthy work-life balance in order to provide optimal patient care.

    Let thy Food be thy Medicine and thy Medicine be thy Food – Hippocrates

    We have a direct influence everyday on the final product of our health. In fact, our body and health are more of a work in progress and it’s never too late to aim for an upgrade.

    Our body is constantly remodeling itself. Constantly changing, for better or for worse. This internal and external renovation is not a random process out of our control. On the contrary think of yourself as an artist, Exercise as your…

    But studies have found a link between both types of diabetes and this mysterious shoulder…
