Clinical Practice Guidelines

Independent Care has implemented its Clinical Practice Guidelines with the support of network physicians on our review committee. Each clinical practice guideline represents an accepted standard of care in the medical profession that may be used for diagnosing, managing or treating a condition or accomplishing a clinical service. Individual clinical decisions should be tailored to specific patient medical and psychosocial needs. Although these guidelines are adapted from national sources, information in these areas may evolve rapidly and lead to changes in recommendations. As changes occur, please update your practice accordingly. None of the information contained within these guidelines is intended to interfere with or prohibit clinical decisions made by a treating physician regarding the medically available treatment options of members.
