Kudos to Ray for posting this before I got a chance! As of December 15, the
National Guideline Clearinghouse is live at www.guideline.gov
<http://www.guideline.gov> . We are scheduled for a public release in
mid-January and we have started our "shake down" to fine tune and locate
bugs, etc. We will be adding new content regularly. Pass the URL around to
your colleagues.

I forward this from a New Zealand HTA list of which I am a
member. It
concerns an important new resource for evidence based
practice.
Moral: If you want to find out what is happening in the
States try
New Zealand:-)
Site contains numerous details of guidelines and allows you
to
compare validity and process measures.
Thanks to Ray Kirk for the original posting.
