Video
Conference|American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting (ASCO)

Tim Moynihan of the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota discusses topics from the session he chaired at ASCO, "Effective Time Management for the Busy Oncologist," including why EHRs may not actually save physicians time; how to manage your email load; and tips for avoiding burnout, which he cites as a danger in such a physically and emotionally taxing profession.
