Burnout and workforce shortages are having a negative impact on nurses globally, particularly after the COVID-19 pandemic. Within the United States, excessive documentation burden (DocBurden) has been linked to nurse burnout. The experience of a system or system-imposed process inhibiting patient care is a core focus area of nursing informatics research. The American Medical Informatics Association (AMIA) 25×5 Task Force to Reduce DocBurden was created in 2022 to decrease U. S. health professionals’ excessive DocBurden to 25% of current state within five years through impactful solutions across health systems that decrease non-value-added documentation, and leverage public/private partnerships and advocacy. This case study will describe the work of the 25×5 Task Force that is relevant to nursing practice. Specifically, we will describe three projects: A) Toolkit for Reducing Excessive DocBurden, B) Development of Pulse Survey for Health Professionals Perceived DocBurden, and C) HIT Roadmap to Promote Interoperability.
