Summary

For this project the broad research objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of an enhanced digital wellbeing program in improving well-being, depression, anxiety, stress, resilience, and job satisfaction of physicians. The intent of the investigators is that this will enable a proactive culture of well-being and mental health support for the broader healthcare workforce during the multiple phases of the pandemic.

The investigator's approach evaluates existing digital models which can be executed in a timely fashion and rapidly scaled for use across other health systems.

Aim 1: Conduct interviews of URM and women physicians to identify barriers and facilitators to accessing and receiving digital well-being, mental health, and culturally sensitive support resources.

Aim 2: Through a randomized controlled trial (RCT) investigate the immediate and long-term effect of a comprehensive well-being focused intervention (push text messaging, resource support, semi-facilitated peer groups hosted by Cobalt) vs. usual care on well-being, depression, anxiety, stress, resilience, and job satisfaction of physicians practicing in the era of COVID.

Comprehensive Well-Being Intervention

The intervention group will receive an 18-month comprehensive suite of services including: 1) monthly automated text messaging reminders about wellbeing resources focused on a range of topics (e.g. mindfulness, stress management, childcare support, racial trauma, diversity and inclusion) and assignment to a one-hour quarterly peer support group with an expectation of regular attendance. Half of these sessions will be self-directed discussion topics and half will be facilitated discussions. The content of monthly text messaging resources and discussion topics for the peer-support groups will be informed by the Aim 1 qualitative findings.
