My brother in law just finished a residency and we asked him the same question. Apparently more mistakes are made in hand offs between doctors than from tired doctors.

I am too lazy to check since I'm on my phone but I believe in the UK between less fatigue and fewer handoff errors it's a wash except for surgeons where there's a clear loss, as in under the new system more patients die.
