In March 2021, ACOG was awarded a subsequent cooperative agreement to further review and recommend updates to the Guidelines. As the award recipient, starting on March 1, 2021, ACOG has engaged in a process to consider and review new information developed by a multidisciplinary group of women’s health professional organizations. Following recommendations by ACOG, HRSA will decide whether to support, in whole or in part, the recommended updates to the guidelines. As part of this cooperative agreement, ACOG is required to base its recommended updates to the Guidelines on review and synthesis of existing clinical guidelines and new scientific evidence. The National Academy of Medicine standards for establishing foundations for and rating strengths of recommendations, articulation of recommendations, as well as external reviews are to be met in developing these guidelines. Additionally, processes are to be incorporated to assure opportunity for public input and transparency, including participation by patients and consumers, in the development of the updated Guideline recommendations. This notice solicits comments from the public on the draft recommendation statements for the Well-Woman Preventive Visits, Counseling for Sexually Transmitted Infections, and Breastfeeding Services and Supplies. The updated draft clinical recommendation statements are provided below: recommended preventive services as determined by age and risk factors.’’ Well Woman Preventive Visits The MSC has updated the clinical recommendation statement to reflect that recommended services may be completed at a single visit or as part of a series of preventive health visits that take place over time to obtain the necessary services. Well Women Visits have also been further defined to include pre-pregnancy, prenatal, and interpregnancy visits. Members of the public can view each complete updated draft recommendation statement by accessing the initiative’s web page at https:// www.womenspreventivehealth.org/. ‘‘The WPSI recommends that women receive at least one preventive care visit per year beginning in adolescence and continuing across the lifespan to ensure the provision of all recommended preventive services. These services may be completed at a single visit or as part of a series of visits that take place over time to obtain all necessary services depending on a woman’s age, health status, reproductive health needs, pregnancy status, and risk factors. Well women visits include pre-pregnancy, prenatal, and interpregnancy visits.

The WPSI recommends that health care providers review a woman’s sexual history and risk factors to help identify those at an increased risk of STIs. Risk factors include but are not limited to age younger than 25 years, a recent history of an STI, a new sex partner, multiple partners, a partner with concurrent partners, a partner with an STI, and a lack of or inconsistent condom use. For adolescents and women not identified as high risk, counseling to reduce the risk of STIs should be considered, as determined by clinical judgment.’’ Breastfeeding Services and Supplies The MSC has updated the clinical recommendation to include consultative services that will optimize successful initiation and maintenance of breastfeeding. ‘‘The WPSI recommends comprehensive lactation support services (including consultation, counseling, education, and breastfeeding equipment and supplies) during the antenatal, perinatal, and postpartum periods to optimize the successful initiation and maintenance of breastfeeding.’’ Diana Espinosa, Acting Administrator.
