- Abstract
The article explores a demand management approach to vitamin D testing over an 8-year period, implementing a mandatory additional information step during ordering. The study reveals a significant reduction in overall vitamin D orders, with potential cost savings estimated between 101292 to 516704 Euros. Topics include the impact on testing frequency, financial savings, and the importance of collaboration with stakeholders for a successful intervention.
