ACPM
position statements are brief summaries of
College viewpoints on important topics
that have already been the focus of an
evidence review, analysis, and
recommendations by one or more entities
outside of ACPM. For example, particular
subjects for which the U.S. Preventive
Services Task Force and the Task Force on
Community Preventive Services have
developed recommendations are typically
suitable topics for position statements.
The
purpose of the position statements is to
outline the College’s perspective on
critical preventive medicine issues, in a
timely fashion, to exert a positive
influence on policy, practice, and
research dealing with the subject of the
statement.
