Physician turnover and job instability have profound implications for healthcare systems, private facilities, and patient outcomes. High physician turnover disrupts continuity of care, impedes establishment of patient-physician relationships, and may compromise overall healthcare quality.
This survey study explores the rate of job turnover in the field of Interventional Spine and Pain Medicine, based on a 2022 survey of physicians of the International Pain and Spine Intervention Society.
A standardized, anonymous survey was distributed by email via Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap) software to physician members of the International Pain and Spine Interventional Society (IPSIS).
Our survey results indicate that interventional spine/pain physicians with initially lower starting salaries were more likely to leave their first job. We also found that those currently in a productivity-based compensation models were more likely to have left their first job.
Of the interventional pain and spine physicians who had been in practice for at least three years, over 65% reported leaving their initial job after training.
医生流动率和工作不稳定对医疗系统、私立医疗机构及患者治疗结果有着深远影响。医生流动率高会破坏医疗连续性,阻碍医患关系的建立,还可能损害整体医疗质量。
本调查研究基于对国际疼痛与脊柱介入协会医生的2022年调查,探讨介入性脊柱与疼痛医学领域的工作流动率。
通过研究电子数据采集(REDCap)软件以电子邮件形式向国际疼痛与脊柱介入协会(IPSIS)的医生会员发放标准化匿名调查问卷。
我们的调查结果表明,起薪最初较低的介入性脊柱/疼痛科医生更有可能离职。我们还发现,目前采用基于工作量的薪酬模式的医生更有可能离职。
在从事介入性疼痛和脊柱治疗至少三年的医生中,超过65%的人报告称在培训后离开了最初的工作岗位。
