At the 2-year mark of the COVID-19 pandemic, primary care clinician burnout is at an all-time high, and primary care practices—those still open—are facing staff shortages and an influx of new patients with unmet needs.

A total of 847 clinicians responded to the survey, conducted February 25 to March 1, 2022. In the slides below, find additional survey results at-a-glance.
