Physician survey results on unnecessary tests

The ABIM Foundation commissioned PerryUndem Research/Communication to conduct a national survey of physicians. The purpose of the survey was to gauge physicians’ attitudes toward the problem of unnecessary tests and procedures in the health care system, views on the causes of the problem, and their perspectives on various solutions. The survey also measured exposure to the Choosing Wisely® campaign and compared self-reported behaviors between those with and without exposure to the campaign.

Read the full report, Unnecessary tests and procedures in the health care system: what physicians say about the problem, the causes, and the solutions: results from a national survey of physicians, here.
