Peer Review Process
Upon completion of the draft SER incorporating the review at the September 2000
USPSTF meeting, we conducted a broad-based external review of the draft. Among the outside
reviewers are representatives of key primary care professional organizations that have formal ties
to the USPSTF, a representative of the Canadian Task Force on Preventive Health Care,
representatives of other professional societies, clinical experts in the area of cervical cancer
screening, members of the AHRQ staff, and representatives of other federal agencies. Appendix
A lists the names and affiliations of all peer reviewers. We took into account the comments of
these reviewers in developing the final version of this SER.
