Health Guidelines Back Off on Routine Cancer Screens

By Kerry Grens on Monday, May 29, 2006.

New Hampshire’s health insurance companies and the Foundation for Healthy Communities have released their latest guidelines for preventive medicine.

Many of the updates add new health screenings to routine care, but there are also some screenings that have been taken away.

They are related to detecting cancer.

This move might sound counterintuitive, but many health care providers agree, it can be good for your health.
