Preventive Services Guidelines

The preventive services listed in the following tables are not necessary at every periodic visit (except in accordance with the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) guidelines). The services may be performed during visits for other reasons (for example, illness visits or chronic disease check-ups). This list does not include reviews of body systems and history relevant to lifestyle in a routine physical, as they are assumed to be covered during the physical.
