Patient-centered, high-quality health care relies on the well-being, health, and safety of health care clinicians.

This report explores the extent, consequences, and contributing factors of clinician burnout and provides a framework for a systems approach to clinician burnout and professional well-being, a research agenda to advance clinician well-being, and recommendations for the field.
