Preventive Health Guidelines
Disclaimer
Molina Healthcare of Texas's Preventive Care Guidelines are derived from recommendations from nationally recognized organizations. Since it is recognized that it is impossible to foresee all possible clinical situations, Molina recommends that clinical judgment be applied, and that the treatment provided to members deviate from the guidelines when individual patient considerations dictate. As with all clinical reference resources, they reflect the best understanding of the science of medicine at the time of publication, but they should be used with the clear understanding that continued research may result in new knowledge and recommendations. We recommend that the medical record contain appropriate documentation for clinical decisions.
For additional information about vaccines, vaccine supply and contraindications for immunization, please visit the National Immunization Program Website or call the National Immunization Hotline at : 1-800 232-2522.
