Regular appointments and screenings that make up preventive care help your physician detect serious problems and also subtle changes in your health. It is essential to catching illnesses in their earliest stages which can lower long-term medical costs. In addition to physical exams, these visits include
Screening tests, like:
- Routine mammograms
- Pap smears
- Routine colonoscopies
- PSA tests
- Cholesterol tests
Services, like:
- Vaccines
- Well baby visits
- Well child visits
- Dental cleanings
- Routine eye exams
You and your physician will decide what preventive services are right for you, based on your age and your gender. If these screenings and services are billed as well-visits, they will be covered by medical insurance at 100%.
