Kia āta kōwhiri Choosing Wisely

The Choosing Wisely campaign seeks to reduce harm from unnecessary and low-value tests and treatment.


The programme aims to improve medication safety in the health and disability sector by focusing on reducing harm from medication errors and addressing unwarranted variation and inequities to improve consumer outcomes. This is being achieved through identifying best practice, testing and sharing new ideas and implementing interventions across the sector.
