But the real cost of spillover isn\u2019t just time. It\u2019s the attention tax: the quiet fragmentation of presence that accumulates across evenings, family dinners, and the moments that were supposed to be something other than work.   In this episode, Dr. Ryan Stegink explores why spillover is so persistently normalized in medicine, what it\u2019s actually costing physicians beyond hours worked, and why the solution isn\u2019t efficiency \u2014 it\u2019s structure.   Key concepts covered: \u2219 Spillover defined: clinical work leaking beyond the boundaries of the workday \u2219 The cognitive cost of open loops and unfinished tasks \u2219 Emotional spillover from difficult encounters \u2219 The attention tax: how spillover reduces presence even when you\u2019re not actively working \u2219 Why spillover is a structural problem that effort alone cannot solve \u2219 Containment as the structural alternative to spillover   Resources mentioned: \u2219 Free Charting Tips PDF: mededwell.com\/chartingtips \u2219 Work with Dr. Stegink one-on-one: mededwell.com\/change   Next episode: Containment: The Missing Skill in Modern Medicine ","author_name":"Wellbeing in Medicine Podcast","author_url":"https:\/\/www.mededwell.com\/podcasts\/the-mededwell-podcast","html":"
