The Growing Strain on Doctors and Medical Groups: How Wellness Advanced MD Provides Relief

Press Release: Wellness Advanced MD

Date: September 4th, 2024

In today’s healthcare environment, physicians and medical groups are increasingly overwhelmed by the rising demands of managing their practices. Balancing patient care with administrative tasks—such as scheduling, billing, and insurance management—has become a major source of burnout and inefficiency. According to a 2024 study, 48% of physicians reported feeling burned out, with administrative burdens being a primary cause (AMA, 2024).

Wellness Advanced MD, Medical Director, Dr. Salvador Borromeo, MD, understands these stressors:

“The administrative load placed on physicians is unsustainable. We need better systems in place that allow healthcare providers to concentrate on what they do best—taking care of patients.”

The Realities of Healthcare Administration

For many healthcare providers, the logistical side of running a practice feels like a second full-time job. Here are the top challenges doctors face:

  • Scheduling Demands: Managing patient appointments efficiently, reducing wait times, and ensuring proper time allocation can overwhelm staff, creating patient dissatisfaction and operational inefficiencies.
  • Billing and Collections: Medical billing complexity and ever-changing insurance requirements often result in delayed or denied claims, negatively affecting revenue streams.
  • Staffing Challenges: Limited personnel frequently means juggling both front-office tasks (e.g., answering phones, verifying insurance) and back-office work (e.g., managing medical records and follow-up calls), adding to the burnout of healthcare staff.

The Administrative Burden and Burnout

A recent study revealed that physicians spend 50% of their time on administrative tasks, time that could otherwise be spent with patients (AthenaHealth, 2024). This excessive administrative workload remains a leading cause of burnout, with documentation and billing stretching physicians’ work hours long after patient visits have ended (Doximity, 2024).
