Annual wellness visits
Your primary care provider keeps you on track with preventative care through annual wellness checks and screenings. Even if you’re not experiencing symptoms, it’s important to get your annual wellness check and recommended screenings so that you and your provider can catch conditions early on when they may be easier to treat. Your provider will order screenings for you based on a few factors like your age, family history and lifestyle.
Annual screenings | Ages to start screening | Why it’s important |
|---|---|---|
Wellness visit | Pediatric and adult annual wellness visits are recommended for all ages. Many insurance plans cover these visits at little or no cost. Check with your provider for details. | Some medical conditions that require early detection, such as high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol might have no symptoms at all. This makes an annual visit with your provider vital to maintaining good health. |
Annual mammograms are recommended between the ages of 40 and 54. For ages 55 and older, you can do yearly or bi-yearly screenings. | Early detection means less invasive treatment can be started right away, leading to life-saving outcomes. | |
Routine cervical cancer screenings generally begin at age 21 depending on the method of screening chosen and end at age 65 for most women. | The American Cancer Society recommends regular screenings to detect cervical cancer early so that any precancerous cells can be found and removed. | |
Start regular screening at 45, and continue until 75. | Screening helps find colorectal cancer before symptoms develop, making it easier to treat and increasing your chances of a full recovery. |
