Choosing Wisely® Informational Survey
Since you are actively engaged in efforts to improve the health of Connecticut residents, I'm hoping you will be interested in answering some questions and offering your opinion about Choosing Wisely® by taking a brief survey. The survey , will take less than 5 minutes of your time.
Choosing Wisely®, as you may know, is a national campaign effort, led by the ABIM Foundation in partnership with Consumer Reports, that supports patients and clinicians working together to review treatment and testing options so that patients receive care that is most effective for them, and avoid care that may be unnecessary, and in some instances may cause harm.
Your answers to the survey will help the Connecticut Choosing Wisely Collaborative (CCWC), a newly formed group of which the CT Center for Primary Care is a founding member, focus its efforts to bring groups and individuals in Connecticut who are active in Choosing Wisely® or who are interested in learning more about Choosing Wisely® together to learn, connect and share.
The CCWC will be hosting a CT Choosing Wisely Summit on Saturday, March 14, 2015 (8am-12:30pm) at Quinnipiac University. The survey results will help us create a Summit agenda that is responsive to the interests and needs of our Connecticut colleagues from community, consumer and patient-oriented organizations, health systems and medical practices, employers and policymakers. If you are interested in attending the Summit, you can indicate that on the survey and more information will be sent to you.
Please respond to the survey before December 22nd by clicking here. We look forward to receiving your input.
