*UPMC Health Plan develops clinical practice guidelines to support the practice of evidence-based medicine. The guidelines are from recognized sources and are updated annually. They are intended as quick reference guides to assist physicians and non-physician providers in the diagnosis and management of selected conditions. They summarize key points but are not comprehensive overviews.
