Identifying and Reducing Low-Value Care is a European Commission grant that funds research measuring wasteful or low-value healthcare practices and piloting ways to cut them, freeing up resources for care that actually helps patients. Proposals are scored on the standard Horizon Europe Excellence, Impact and Implementation criteria, and this call publishes its own numeric bar: each criterion needs…
This call funds work that develops evidence-based indicators to identify low-value care, healthcare that is overused, misused or underused, and tests strategies to reduce it. It covers clinical studies, digital and AI-based analysis tools, and comparisons of payment systems that may unintentionally reward low-value care.
