Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic had a profound effect on the health care workforce. Studies have demonstrated work overload, burnout, and intent to leave one’s current organization (ITL) across health care roles,1,2 and health care worker turnover remained elevated even after the pandemic.3
These trends have implications for staffing and composition of clinical teams, with downstream effects on physicians’ experience and workflows. We assessed the prevalence of an incomplete team after the pandemic and its association with burnout and work intentions of US physicians.
