- •
Sending feedback about recent steroid prescription to general practitioners reduced parenteral steroids prescription rate by about one-third.

Feedback in the form of short text messages was demonstrated to be at least as effective as postal letters, and much cheaper.

Reduction in this outcome was unrelated to gender and age but it was associated with the number of feedback messages sent.
