In 2012, the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) Foundation launched a campaign called Choosing Wisely. The goal of the project was to encourage discussion about medical care that might be unnecessary or even harmful. Project leaders invited physician specialty societies to submit lists of five things that "physicians and patients should question" in order to make "wise decisions about the most appropriate care based on the individual situation."
