Clinical practice guidelines list

The purpose of a clinical practice guideline is to help you engage your patients in discussions of goals, preferences and priorities, and to provide you with information on the most effective methods of screening, diagnosis and treatment.

Below is a list of all Priority Health-recommended Clinical Practice Guideline documents by topic. All originated from the Michigan Quality Improvement Consortium (MQIC) and have been adopted by Priority Health. (MQIC) is a collaborative effort to develop and implement standard clinical guidelines and performance measures. MQIC participants include physicians and other personnel representing the Michigan HMOs. MAHP recognizes the expertise and evidence-based knowledge that the guidelines represent and encourages the use of accepted standards of care to promote quality care and better health outcomes for Michiganders.
