Electronic Preventive Services Selector (ePSS) Tool
A complete list of USPSTF recommendations, sorted by grade, can be found using ePSS, an application designed to help primary care clinicians identify the right clinical preventive services for their patients.
Opportunity for Public Comment
In an effort to make the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommendations clearer and its processes more transparent, the Task Force started posting draft Recommendation Statements online for public comment in 2010. To further enhance its work, the Task Force began inviting public comment on all its draft Research Plans in December 2011 and its draft Evidence Reviews in March 2013.
