A web-based patient tool for preventive health: preliminary report.

Background: The Internet is a promising medium for engaging the community in preventive care and health promotion, particularly among those who do not routinely access health care.

Objective: The authors pilot-tested a novel website that translates evidence-based preventive health guidelines into a patient health education tool. The web-based tool allows individuals to enter their health risk factors and receive a tailored checklist of recommended preventive health services based on up-to-date guidelines from the US Preventive Services Task Force and the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices.
