Hi all,

I'm writing regarding the changes to the clinical tools and services provided by CMA, specifically CPG Infobase.

Can anyone clarify for me whether CPG Infobase is disappearing at the end of the year, or shifting to a different subscription, or being archived but not maintained? I am quite confused about what's happening there.

Does anyone have recommendations for how to fill the gap when we lose Infobase? What other guideline-focussed databases do people gravitate to? The main ones I've known about are TRIP database and NICE Guidance.

Thank you,

Elizabeth
