Primary care providers spend more time on electronic health record documentation compared to allergy and immunology providers before and after the pandemic. Despite the implementation of telemedicine, the number of messages managed by both types of providers remained consistent.

Research will continue to evaluate the impact of innovative technologies on EHR documentation burden.
