Visiting your healthcare provider when you&rsquo;re sick is an easy choice. Coming in when you&rsquo;re feeling fine for a checkup, is a bit tougher. We get it -- life can get busy and visiting the doctor when you&rsquo;re not sick probably doesn&rsquo;t cross your mind. But wellness exams are so important for your health that we cover the full cost. $0, no-cost for the visit.
 
What are the benefits of an annual wellness visit?
Fight illnesses and live longer. Knowing where your health stands and getting recommended exams will not only give you peace of mind, but will also help detect problems early, when they&rsquo;re easiest to treat.
Your provider will determine which screenings you need based on your personal and family health history, your age, and other factors. Please note your health plan may not cover all screenings. So be sure to ask before agreeing to extended testing.
Develop a relationship with your healthcare provider. Annual wellness visits are the opportunity to have open, honest, and candid conversations with your provider about your health and lifestyle before you&rsquo;re sick.
Building a relationship with your provider not only helps you to feel more comfortable with your doctor during examinations, but this helps your provider understand your health better &mdash; which can help in the identification of health concerns and corresponding treatments.
