Evidence-based practice (EBP) is known to reduce costs by eliminating ineffective treatments, promote the best patient outcomes through the use of the most current and effective methods, encourage healthcare worker retention by fostering a professional and competent environment, and reduce care variations between geographic locations by standardizing practices based on the best available evidence. Reducing the cost of healthcare worker salaries is not a direct outcome of implementing EBP.
