“…Furthermore, the duration of time since completion of training may have impacted the accuracy of survey responses. While we obtained a relatively high response rate for a physician survey and our respondents were similar to the non-respondents as well as early and late respondents, 18,30 potential for response and selection bias remains. Furthermore, only 10% of respondents provided free text comments.…”

“…The survey sample and implementation were previously described. 18 Using the AMA Masterfile, we prescreened 2,170 randomly selected internal medicine physicians who completed training within the last 10 years to confirm qualifying specialty (internal medicine), mailing address, and that the physician was actively seeing patients at least 20 hours a week. The final sample included 902 internal medicine physicians who were mailed a paper survey between July 2014 through January 2015 using a modified Dillman method.…”

A total of 456 physicians (50.6%) responded. Fewer than one fourth reported being exposed to teaching about high value care at least frequently (23.6%, 106/450). Only 43.8% of respondents (193/446) felt prepared to use overtreatment guidelines in conversations with patients, whereas 85.8% (379/447) felt prepared to participate in shared decision making with patients at the conclusion of their training, and 84.4% (380/450) reported practicing generic prescribing. Physicians who completed residency more recently were more likely to report practicing generic prescribing and feeling well prepared to use overtreatment guidelines in conversations with patients (p < .01 for both). Insights: In a national survey, recent U.S. internal medicine residency graduates were more likely to experience high value care during training, which may reflect increased national and local efforts in this area. However, being exposed to high value care as a trainee may not translate into specific tools for practice. In fact, many U.S. internists reported inadequate exposure to prepare them for patient discussions about costs and the use of overtreatment guidelines in practice.
