Choosing Wisely Toolkit: For Creating Savvy Health Care Consumers

We partnered with Consumer Reports, the Pacific Business Group on Health and the National Business Coalition on Health to create this comprehensive toolkit that offers turnkey resources to help teach employees how to have productive conversations with health care providers.

Use it to boost employee-consumer knowledge and confidence, plus increase engagement in their health care! Among the wealth of resources, the toolkit features:

• Key questions for employees to ask their doctors, including: “Do I need that test?” “What are my options?” and “How much does that test/treatment/medication cost?”
• Articles about how to approach cost discussions.
• Tip sheets on dealing with illness, including how to ask for a second opinion.
