What the paper says

Unlike prior research based on self-reported data, this study found no evidence of an increase in mental disorder claims among HCWs during the pandemic. These results suggest that workers' compensation claims data may not fully capture the broader mental health challenges experienced by HCWs, potentially due to underreporting or barriers to accessing claims.
