While this concept of note bloat has been widely discussed, there is little evidence on its scope or causes. This retrospective cross-sectional study aims to help fill this knowledge gap by examining the length and redundancy of nearly 3 million outpatient progress notes written between 2009 and 2018 by over 6,000 authors across 46 medical specialties at Oregon Health & Science University.}, number = {IR}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.6083/td96k3085}, recid = {9251}, address = {2021}, }
