Abstract
Among this population-based cohort of privately insured men, we found little effect on PSA screening from changes to the US Preventive Services Task Force clinical practice guidelines. However, the rates of PSA screening were much lower among older men (>75 years). Further research is needed to assess the impact of the new guidelines on prostate cancer incidence and survival.
