Physician Burnout Is A Public Health Crisis: A Message To Our Fellow Health Care CEOs
The Quadruple Aim recognizes that a healthy, energized, engaged, and resilient physician workforce is essential to achieving national health goals of higher quality, more affordable care and better health for the populations we serve. Yet in a recent study of U.S. physicians, more than half reported experiencing at least one symptom of burnout—a substantial increase over previous years—indicating that burnout among physicians is becoming a national health crisis. Leadership is needed to address the root causes of this problem and reposition the health care workforce for the future.

Your job is to eliminate them through a series of basic security-promoting tasks.
While your IT security staff may have conducted such work in the past related to HIPAA, “in the past” is never recent enough for a robust security program in the hyper-changing technology world, especially if the work was incomplete or conducted over a year ago. In too many hospitals, security protections have been a one-shot effort conducted years ago with little follow-up. Your hospital may need to undertake the following actions from a blank slate perspective in order to combat today's sophisticated threats.
1. Identify every device on the network.
