Clinical Resources

Member Clinical Resources is a compilation of easy to read medical information published by nationally recognized health care organizations and websites of state or federal agencies with resources for members. Member Clinical Resources are not intended to provide medical advice or medical care but to complement care or inform where to get help for some medical conditions. Medical advice and care should be discussed with the treating provider. Member Clinical Resources are evaluated and updated at least annually and are available to members.
