Choosing wisely: you get what you pay for.

Choosing Wisely is an initiative of the American Board of Internal Medicine Foundation in partnership with Consumer Reports and other consumer-oriented organizations to encourage "physicians, patients and other health care stakeholders to think and talk about medical tests and procedures that may be unnecessary, and in some instances cause harm."(1) The initiative's broader goal is to ensure that the right care is delivered at the right time and in the right place. As part of the initiative, 9 professional societies in 2012 each released "Five things physicians and patients should question." In this issue of Neurology®, Langer-Gould et al.(2) present the American Academy of Neurology's list, which joined those of 16 other specialty societies released in February 2013.
