What your plan contains
Three things, and none of them is written for you by a program. The screenings are rows from the recommending bodies themselves: the US Preventive Services Task Force, the American Cancer Society, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the CDC and others, each quoted in its own words with a link to the source and the source's own date. The lab numbers are the markers our guides tie to the goals you chose, each linked to its reference ranges. The reading list is a short path through our guides, in order.
The plan groups screenings by what the recommending body says about someone your age and sex: recommended now, recommended if a condition applies to you (smoking history, family history or another risk factor), a decision to make with your clinician, and screenings a body recommends against or says there is not enough evidence to judge. When the bodies disagree about someone your age and sex, the plan files the screening as a decision to make with your clinician and says so, and the screening pages show every body side by side.
What it does not do
It does not diagnose anything or weigh your history. A personal or family history, a symptom or an earlier result can move a screening earlier or make one unnecessary, and only a clinician who knows you can apply that. Take the plan to your next appointment as a list of questions rather than a list of orders.
We keep your answers for up to 14 days, linked only to this browser, so the plan is still there if you come back. They never appear in a web address, the plan page runs no advertising scripts, and our analytics record that a plan was built, never what you entered. To keep the plan longer, save it to a free account; deleting the account deletes the plan. How we source every row is set out in how we verify.
