Holding up

You’re holding up today, and that’s ok. Your system is a little stressed, things might not be going as smoothly as usual, but you’re doing your best and keeping things together best you can. This is an important time to get the rest and support you need in order to maintain and improve your spot on the OK-ness Spectrum.

WHAT TO DO NOW: When you are holding up, it is even more important to stay connected with meaningful support and social networks as they help us function better when facing stress. Physical activity can also kick things into gear.

  • Call a relative, friend, or colleague
  • Set a positive goal for the day
  • Take a brisk walk

Cost to You

  • Free unlimited text-based coaching
  • Therapy and psychiatry services billed through your insurance provider (When cost-sharing is required, Mayo Medical Plan participants are responsible for the full cost of services until they’ve met their plan deductible. Costs for visits can vary as they are determined by the provider, not the Mayo Medical Plan. Once the participant has met their deductible, coinsurance begins. This means the participant is responsible for 20% of covered services and the Mayo Medical Plan pays for 80%. Coinsurance continues until the participant has met their out-of-pocket maximum for the calendar year. Once this maximum is met, the Mayo Medical Plan pays for 100% of covered services through the end of the calendar year.)

Collegiality and creating connections with one's peers are critical components of physician satisfaction and well-being. Increased clinical and administrative demands in healthcare can make creating these connections more challenging. Physician / Scientist Engagement Groups are designed to cultivate these vital connections by encouraging colleagues to gather for a complimentary meal and conversation around their physician experience. 

For questions and more information on how to sign up for this program, please contact PEGs@mayo.edu. If you would like to start your own Physician Engagement Group, please visit the intranet site to get started.
