48% of Physicians Are Burned Out Right Now

Don’t wait for resignations or tragedy to tell you who’s at risk. See how the Well-Being Index pinpoints distress before it costs you $500K+ per clinician turnover.

The Cost of Doing Nothing (You Can't Afford to Ignore)

Your organization is hemorrhaging talent, productivity, and revenue through preventable burnout, and every day you delay action, you’re choosing to pay the price:


Turnover Costs: $500K-$1M

Average cost to replace each clinician who leaves due to burnout. Remaining staff work at 60% capacity due to emotional exhaustion, overtime costs skyrocket as you desperately try to maintain coverage, and quality metrics decline across all departments. Your annual turnover rate is likely costing you 20-30% of your operating budget—the risk is immediate, measurable, and happening in your organization today.


Medical Error Risk: 3x Higher

Burned-out staff are twice as likely to be involved in patient safety incidents. Each preventable error costs an average of $43,000 in legal fees alone—before considering settlements, insurance increases, and regulatory penalties. Patient satisfaction scores plummet with stressed teams, your organization faces increased malpractice liability, and regulatory scrutiny intensifies with each incident.


Organizational Impact: $4.6B

Annual cost to the U.S. healthcare system due to burnout. Without intervention, your organization is contributing to (and paying for) this crisis right now, along with causing lasting reputational damage. Glassdoor reviews and social media complaints drive away top talent, community trust erodes with each staff exodus, and board members and stakeholders question leadership effectiveness.
