Practicing Wise Stewardship of Resources examines a physician’s obligation as a good steward of health care resources.

In April 2016, we began a partnership with AcademyHealth aimed at reducing low-value care. A key component to this partnership includes the creation of the AcademyHealth and ABIM Foundation Research Community on Low-Value Care, which convenes researchers and others to accelerate the development and implementation of research around low-value care.

The partnership with AcademyHealth formed as the result of two multi-stakeholder meetings held in 2014 and 2015 that brought to light gaps in the evidence base around low-value care. The AcademyHealth and ABIM Foundation Research Community on Low-Value Care includes an online forum, a webinar series and an in-person meeting with hopes to grow this evidence base and ultimately have an impact on reducing overuse.
