@ChooseWiselyCA Congratulations @ChooseWiselyCA on a magnificent campaign!!

Today officially marks 10 years of #ChoosingWisely🇨🇦 ! We want to thank the dedicated community of clinicians, patients, researchers, and health system partners for making this milestone happen.

How can we improve the value of care for the system of our future? Dr. Levinson & Dr. Leis highlight the levers needed to drive change and reduce overuse in health care …mpublications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

Important story by @MelissaSweetDr that @Mark_Butler_MP is to stick with former Fed Govt decision to de-fund @NPSMedicineWise: some responses: "disappointing, illogical, unfathomable, sad, concerning, and short sighted" croakey.org/as-nps-medicin…

Imagine trying to navigate a health service with low health literacy. This is the reality for many Australians every day. #nms2022

On September 15, 1959, a man named Paul Orgeron detonated a bomb during recess at Poe Elementary School in Texas, killing himself along with my grandfather (custodian James Arlie Montgomery), a teacher, and three 7-year-old boys. (1/3)

This is really important! Especially in an election campaign where politicians are putting the focus on medicines. @NPSMedicineWise calls for a review of the Federal budget decision to cut funding for its Quality Use of Medicines initiatives #AusVotesHealth2022 cc @CroakeyNews

“Drop the Pre-Op” and “Bye-Bye PPI”- Professor Wendy Levinson provides examples of smart marketing to improve decision making for clinicians. #CWANM22

@ChooseWiselyAU Excited to be hearing from Professor Wendy Levinson and the great work from @ChooseWiselyCA

Shocked to hear that NPS Medicinewise was defunded in the Liberal Budget on Tuesday. Over $1.1 billion in savings to the PBS and MBS, responsible for reducing countless medication harms and errors, and providing education to prescribers and consumers on medicines since 1998.

Need to do better to understand where and why #medicationerrors occur - need more systemic approach, current accurate data, appropriate funding @LeanneWells63 @topherfreeman @hvdow @APharm68 @MichaelKidd5 @JenBrockie #NMS2021

Good indicators and measurements start with a clear goal of what we want to achieve. Great panel discussion today #NMS2021 @NPSMedicineWise

@NataliaK_au Congratulations Natalia - so great to see

Have you, or someone you know, every gone missing and come back? @syd_health would love to hear your thoughts about what you needed when you came back - so we can identify what good support might look like. Please RT #missingpersons #research bit.ly/2ZxSWkB

With #PODC2019 underway, here’s my perspective in @bmj_latest Tara Montgomery: Claiming our power as health citizens in an age of overdiagnosis - go.shr.lc/2DQMoBu @PreventingODx @chrishendel @WolfsonD @sacjai @DebraLNess @SallyOkun @RobynLindner

We didn’t print enough handouts because more people came than we imagined! This is a good thing: the #PODC2019 crowd is really engaged with improving patient and public communication. Thank you!
