Use the button below to add your to answers to the following questions as a "New Discussion Topic" in the forum.

1. What are typical intrinsic and extrinsic factors causing medical overuse and how would they help you identify a low value care service to address? (Refer to reading “Setting a research agenda for medical overuse”).
2. Why would assessing engagement of key stakeholders help you in selecting an area of overuse to target your project? (Refer to reading “Addressing overuse of health services in health systems: a critical interpretive synthesis.”)
3. How might you assess the culture of overuse and how would it inform the selection of an overuse topic to address? (Refer to reading “A Practical Framework for Understanding and Reducing Medical Overuse: Conceptualizing Overuse Through the Patient-Clinician Interaction.”)
4. What clinician/patient factors should you consider when selecting an area of overuse to target in your project? (Refer to reading “Addressing overuse of health services in health systems: a critical interpretive synthesis” and reading “A Practical Framework for Understanding and Reducing Medical Overuse: Conceptualizing Overuse Through the Patient-Clinician Interaction.”)
5. How might developing contextual influence by identifying key stakeholders and evaluating sampling data help you select and area of overuse to target? (Refer to reading “A Practical Framework for Understanding and Reducing Medical Overuse: Conceptualizing Overuse Through the Patient-Clinician Interaction.”)
6. How might identifying the drivers influencing medical overuse and the mode of measurement of the overused service help you prioritize selection of a project? (Refer to reading “A Practical Framework for Understanding and Reducing Medical Overuse: Conceptualizing Overuse Through the Patient-Clinician Interaction.”)
7. Determine various de-implementation problems that can fit the “low hanging fruit” models of simplicity, order, and yield. (refer to reading “Where Is the "Low-Hanging Fruit" in Diagnostic Quality and Safety?”)
