That really all depends on what you feel like doing.

How many servers?  How many people have the password?  How secure is the
password?  How much work do you feel like doing?

I would say, change it as often as needed to be secure, but not so often
as to break Exchange.

I'm sure there's a Q article about it.

Conversation: Service account password change
Subject: Service account password change


What's the general recommendation on changing service account passwords.
Should it be done periodically for security reasons, perhaps when an
Admin leaves the company.

Is there a good online reference for all the considerations in making
the change.  Thanks all.
