Choosing Wisely® is a multi-year effort led by the ABIM Foundation to support and engage physicians in being better stewards of finite health care resources. As part of Choosing Wisely, and in cooperation with the ABIM Foundation, in 2016 ASH introduced the Choosing Wisely Champions initiative to recognize the efforts of practitioners who are working to eliminate costly and potentially harmful overuse of tests and procedures. Choosing Wisely Champions are invited to the ASH annual meeting to present successful utilization strategies that they have developed and implemented in their practice, institution, or hospital system, providing annual meeting attendees with an opportunity to learn about projects that might be translated to their own practices.
