Clinical & Preventative Guidelines
Clinical and Preventative Guidelines
At Chorus Community Health Plans (CCHP) our Clinical and Preventative Guidelines assist clinicians by providing a framework for the evaluation and treatment of patients. These guidelines have not been developed as, nor should they be construed as absolute standards or minimal levels of care. The physician, in light of the individual circumstances presented by the patient, must make the ultimate judgment regarding the application of any specific mode of treatment. In other words, these guidelines are not intended to replace the clinical judgment of health care professionals.
CCHP's Medical Advisory Committee reviews the following guidelines at least every two years or earlier if there are significant evidence-based changes in best practices or updates to reference guidelines.
Immunization Schedule Guidelines
Stay current. Immunization schedules from the CDC help ensure both children and adults receive the vaccines they need at the right times.
Additional Guidelines
In addition to immunization schedules, we've listed other key health guidelines to ensure safety and quality care.
US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) Grade A&B Recommendations
American Academy of Pediatrics Recommendations for Preventative Pediatric Health Care
