A series of free online cases and questions addressing high-value care is available to help clinicians weigh the benefits, harms, and costs of tests and treatment options for common conditions in order to improve health and eliminate waste.


A series of free online cases and questions addressing high-value care is available to help clinicians weigh the benefits, harms, and costs of tests and treatment options for common conditions in order to improve health and eliminate waste.

Each topic can be completed in 30 to 60 minutes on a desktop, laptop, tablet or smartphone. These interactive cases offer clinicians the opportunity to earn free CME credits and ABIM Medical Knowledge (MOC) points.

The five topics are:

  • Avoid Unnecessary Testing
  • Use Emergency and Hospital Level Care Judiciously
  • Improve Outcomes with Health Promotion and Disease Prevention
  • Prescribe Medications Safely and Cost Effectively
  • Overcome Barriers to High Value Care
