CA ACP previously announced its partnership in a Choosing Wisely® grant led by the Integrated Healthcare Association with the goal of helping physicians, patients and other health care stakeholders think and talk about the overuse of health care resources. Our primary role in this effort is to engage and inform you about the resources available to effectively communicate with your patients and help reduce unnecessary tests and treatments, consistent with the culture of Choosing Wisely.
With that goal in mind, here are responses to the first exercise in a series of challenges that highlight Choosing Wisely and ACP’s High Value Care initiative.
Challenge #1 - Barriers on Antibiotic Use and Bronchitis
Challenge #2 - Barriers on Antibiotic Overuse for UTI
