The trend comes as the medical profession is already struggling to balance the demands of patient care with the strain put on doctors from overwork. Since last year, new rules have limited a resident's hours to 80 hours a week.

i heard from med school friends that 80 doesnt work in practice. They find ways around it. It's still around 100-120 hours
