Too many folks put off their wellness checks because they don’t feel sick and don’t think they have anything to be concerned about. And some don’t believe they can afford a simple check-up.
If it’s been a while since you’ve had a wellness visit, here’s some good news. Preventive care isn’t just about avoiding illness—it can help you stay healthy and maintain your overall well-being. And the best part? When you visit an in-network provider, your health plan covers services including screenings, checkups and healthcare counseling, many at no cost to you.
