You can now easily identify the most recently created or revised Academy policies using a new resource on the AAFP Congress of Delegates Web page at http://www.aafp.org/congress.xml. You'll need to enter your member ID number to get to the site.
The "Policy Statements -- New and Revised" document, available as a PDF file at http://www.aafp.org/PreBuilt/Summary.pdf, presents an alphabetical list of nonclinical policies created or revised by the 2003 Congress. (Click on "More information on using PDF files" for help accessing the file.) Nonclinical policy statements are those describing the Academy's views on public health issues and delivery of medical care.
Each policy is listed by title; some also include a brief descriptor. Members can click on the appropriate title to link to the policy on the "AAFP Policies on Health Issues" Web page at http://www.aafp.org/policies.xml.
Stay tuned ... you should soon be able to access new and revised clinical policies at the "AAFP Clinical Recommendations" Web page (http://www.aafp.org/clinicalrecs.xml) through a similar process.
