A national survey of 4,800 first-year PAs found burnout-positive screening at 47%, statistically indistinguishable from interns.
A national survey of 4,800 first-year physician assistants, published Monday in JAMA Network Open, found a burnout-positive screening rate of 47% — a figure statistically indistinguishable from contemporaneous studies of first-year resident physicians.
The authors note the convergence has not been previously documented; PAs were widely assumed to enter practice with lower burnout because of shorter training and clearer scope.
