Also they improve the doctor-patient relationship (perceived quality) and last but not least they limit greenhouse gas emissions and the impact on the environment resulting from healthcare (ecological footprint).<\/p>\n<p>The course includes 10 video presentations, 5 exercises on 25 daily practice cases and a CME questionnaire that investigates the knowledge acquired.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/choosingwiselyitaly.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Program.pdf\">Program<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From Monday 4 March 2024, the new distance learning course of the National Federation of Medical Doctors\u2019 and Dentists\u2019 Orders (FNOMCeO) &#8220;Choosing Wisely Italy: a tool to improve the appropriateness and quality of care&#8221; is available free of charge for Italian doctors and dentists and provides 10 credits in Continuing Medical Education (CME code 411717).
