Our national study found that for every one hour with patients, UK resident doctors spend four hours on admin. In @bmj_latest today, we break down why this isn’t just an inconvenience, it’s a safety risk.  1) Fragmented EHRs → endless copy-paste + re-entering data 2) Trainees turned into scribes 3) Less training, less confidence, less preparedness We suggest: • Reassign admin to allied staff • Joined-up IT that fits clinical workflows • Minimum patient-facing time requirement in training • Clinicians co-designing digital tools If you work in healthcare: what’s one admin task you’d automate or reassign tomorrow? 👇 Your answers might shape the fix-list.
