At the different levels of the healthcare system, we see varying methods of healthcare used. These methods include managed care systems, case management, and primary healthcare.
Managed Care System:
The managed care system is designed to control the cost while maintaining the quality of care. The patient's care from admission to discharge is planned by the primary care provider or the case manager, also known as the gatekeeper. In a managed care system, the number of care providers is...

The barriers to effective communication also include cultural barriers, semantic barriers, gender barriers, and time constraints.
Cultural barriers:
Differences in values, beliefs, religion, knowledge, and tradition can significantly impact communication. Awareness of nonverbal cues is critical, especially when conversing with a patient from a different culture. What appears appropriate in one culture may be inappropriate in another.
Semantic barriers:
As a result of their tendency to use...

Area of Science:

  • Health Services Research
  • Medical Education
  • Health Economics

Background:

  • Low-value health care services increase costs without improving patient outcomes.
  • Reducing these services is crucial for decreasing health care expenditures and eliminating waste.
  • The "Choosing Wisely" campaign aims to decrease the use of potentially unnecessary, low-value services.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine Continuing Medical Education (CME) attendees' opinions on the "Choosing Wisely" campaign.
  • To assess healthcare professionals' perspectives on reducing low-value services in clinical practice.
  • To compare current opinions with those from a previous survey.

Main Methods:

  • Survey of Continuing Medical Education (CME) attendees regarding the "Choosing Wisely" campaign.
  • Comparison of responses with data from a survey conducted one year prior.
  • Analysis of perceived barriers and opportunities for reducing low-value services.

Main Results:

  • Respondents acknowledged health care resource waste as a significant problem.
  • Healthcare professionals identified frequent opportunities to address low-value services with patients.
  • A reported limited ability to successfully reduce unnecessary services in daily practice was noted.
  • Lack of familiarity with the "Choosing Wisely" campaign was identified as a potential barrier.

Conclusions:

  • Healthcare professionals are aware of and concerned about low-value care.
  • Despite recognizing opportunities, practical implementation of reducing low-value services remains challenging.
  • Enhanced familiarity and support for initiatives like "Choosing Wisely" may be necessary to drive practice change.
