Preventive care
What is preventive care?
The right preventive care at every stage of life can help you stay healthy, avoid or delay the onset of disease, or keep a condition you may already have from becoming worse. Both adults and children need routine immunizations, screenings and preventive check-ups.
Did you know? Your health plan includes many no-cost preventive services. You’ll pay nothing for the following health visits when you visit an in-network doctors:
- Adult physicals
- Well-child exams and immunizations
- OB/GYN visits and pap tests
- Mammograms
- Prostate and colorectal screenings
- Routine prenatal maternity services
What is not considered preventive care?
Your doctor may order tests during your preventive care visit that are covered under your plan’s medical benefits, not your preventive care benefits. Your doctor may also treat an existing condition (or you may have symptoms of an illness at the time of your visit). These tests and/or treatments may be subject to deductibles, copays and/or coinsurance.
