Health and Science Policy and Evidence-Based Medicine
Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guideline (CPG) Proposal Application
The ACCP Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guideline (EBG) application is designed to facilitate the planning, implementation, and evaluation of potential EBG topics that will comply with ACCP standards. It also serves as a tool that will assist the ACCP Health and Science Policy (HSP) Committee in providing effective review, planning, and support for EBG development.
The ACCP typically develops up to 3 EBGs a year. The HSP Committee reviews EBG topics based on established criteria for EBG development. If the proposed topic does not have a body of supporting evidence-based data, the topic may be referred to the ACCP NetWorks, at which point the development of a consensus statement could be considered.
In order for the HSP Committee to review each proposal, all fields of the application are to be completed and submitted along with any supporting documentation. Supporting documentation (if applicable) should be sent to Sandra Zelman Lewis, PhD, Assistant Vice President, HSP and QI.
In order for a proposed topic to be considered for the upcoming fiscal year, the proposed topic application must be submitted by December 31st of the calendar year.
