摘要：

A physician describes the daily work in his primary care practice and documents the high volume of tasks involved in patient care aside from face-to-face visits. In a typical day, each doctor saw 18 patients, made 24 telephone calls, sent 17 e-mail messages, and reviewed 31 laboratory and imaging reports and 14 consultation reports.
