Both committees will review topics by prioritizing and ranking topics based on the following criteria: prevalence of disease, resource utilization, variation in care, other existing guidelines, new data/changes in diagnosis or treatment and potential for measure/quality development. Once vetted, four or more new guidelines and 10-15 CPUs will be recommended for development throughout the year.
AGA develops clinical guidance using the most up-to-date research to help you practice evidence-based medicine. Clinical guidance is critical to reducing physician variation and providing high-quality patient care.
