| Popis: | It is generally believed that big changes can be brought about by big interventions. Sometimes, small interventions also can show spectacular results. This case describes the impact of simple intervention, audit and feedback on change in the behavior of clinicians. In this case, the impact of simple intervention in the form of passive feedback has been documented. All the prescriptions received in pharmacy during the period of study were scrutinized for specific prescription errors. An overall error rate of 0.12% was observed in phase 1 of the study, which was reduced to 0.04% during phase 2 of the study after implementation of the intervention, which further dropped to zero during phase 3. It was concluded that a simple audit and feedback nudged the recipients of the feedback to modify their behavior. How to cite this article Tadia VK, Ahlawat R, Arya SK, Sharma DK.
