It reframes improvement from \"doing less\" to \"doing better,\" prioritizing value delivered per unit effort and transparent measurement of treatment burden, workload, and harms. We outline why clutter proliferates - decision fatigue, cognitive biases, overdiagnosis, incidental findings, and bureaucratic drift - and how these forces fuel cascades, moral distress, and lost trust. We propose a five-step cycle-Scan, Sort, Select, Safeguard, Sustain-that operationalizes decluttering across patient, team, and system levels through category-first review, explicit thresholds, safety nets, and time-bounded reassessment. Clinical applications include deprescribing with monitored tapers, appropriateness-based testing and screening, pathway redesign to shorten time-to-decision, and courteous refusal scripts paired with contingency plans. Professional practices emphasize agenda setting, message windowing, checklists and dashboards for cognitive offloading, role clarity, digital minimalism, and indication-based telemedicine. Implementation relies on co-designed indicators, governance of order sets and alerts, audit-and-feedback, and rapid learning cycles that balance overuse and underuse while safeguarding equity.
