The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force seeks comments on a draft recommendation statement and draft evidence review on screening for cognitive impairment in older adults. The Task Force concluded that more research is needed to make a recommendation for or against screening. The draft recommendation statement and draft evidence review are available for review and public comment from September 10, 2019, to October 7, 2019, here.
Any visitor to the Task Force website can comment on any of the listed USPSTF draft documents. However, readers should note that the USPSTF writes these documents for researchers, primary care doctors, and other health care providers, using medical and scientific language as appropriate for these audiences.
