Physicians who committed suicide had "unexpected similarities" to physicians who died of natural causes, according to a pilot study on physician mortality conducted by the American Medical Association and the American Psychiatric Association. Results of the study are contained in a report prepared by the AMA's Council on Scientific Affairs and will be presented to the AMA's House of Delegates for possible action during the Association's Interim Meeting in Miami Beach in December.
