                Authors' recommendations:
                Priority orders and its evaluation index for future clinical preventive services were studied in this research. As a result, clinical effectiveness, and cost effectiveness were the highest priority, followed by medical seriousness, applicable subjects, and public acceptance. Index for the clinical effectiveness were clinical index improvement and health behaviour; QALY, CE ratio for cost effectiveness; death rate and prevalence rate for medical seriousness; recommended age of population for applicable subjects; and lastly, requirements for public acceptance. With such base, drug treatment and educational counselling for smoking, educational counselling for obesity, counselling and analysis of nutritional intake are considered the major priorities for the clinical preventive services, especially for smoking. 
As the first step towards the extended benefits of clinical preventive services in the future, the analysis of the results has definite limitations. Standard index deriving from current treatment services, it should be acknowledged that such treatments may lack in preventive characteristic results from Korea, there were definite limitations to standardize the results; especially standardization of educational counselling and limited reference of cost effectiveness evidence. Insurance should be provided for services that are of high need and which have verified effects and disease control programs should be developed to increase the sustainability of chronic disease controls and support health promotion.
