You’re spending too much time with patients

A psychiatrist retires after being told to spend less time with patients:

On March 8, Kraft was notified by her supervisor that the time allotted for her to see patients would be reduced from 60 minutes for a new patient to 45 minutes, and 20 minutes for a return patient down to 15 minutes. Incorporating paperwork and dictation, Kraft would only be allotted 30 minutes of face time for a new patient and 10 minutes for a return patient, she said.

The alteration in the time with patients would raise the number of patients she would meet on a daily basis from 18 return patients to 24.
