The following topics are in review and development with the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (Task Force). The purpose of a review is to update a recommendation based on new research or to add a new recommendation to the Task Force library.
Every recommendation involves several stages of development. The diagram below outlines the current status for each topic now under review. The review process takes into account input from the medical and research community, stakeholders, and the general public.
The length of time for the entire recommendation process varies depending on the amount and type of available evidence and the time required for compilation of data into a draft recommendation, public comment periods and consideration of comments, and in-depth review and discussions among Task Force members.
