Colorectal Cancer Screening measures (CCS) within HEDIS changed specifications from age 50 to 45 in the measurement year 2022.

It was raised because rates increased meaningfully in young/middle-aged people, which shifts the need for screening downstream (in age).

Healthcare measures are something I know *tons* about, and the change was absolutely in-line with data.

Out of all the things to moan about with healthcare, that's not one of them.

Or alternatively, your question is a non-sequitur because the two situations are not even remotely analogous.

Your doctor wasn't "following his gut with ol' folk wisdom and that there experience", he was following guidelines based on national quality initiatives which in turn were based on a fuckload of historical and longitudinal data.

The data changed as a function of age (among other things), and so the recommendations changed.

A doctor telling a 45 year old "ah bro it ain't no big deal bro...just wait five years bro lmao" is doing his patient a disservice.

So then yes, you are vaccinated...

Did you get the boosters too?

Maybe start over with a new troll?

Riley went to the Grizz Bizarro School of Trolling. Cringe isn’t even the word. Maybe pity? Awkward?

Either way...
