Medicare Advantage Preventive Services
When it comes to your health, studies show that prevention and early detection are key. That's why we offer more than 20 Medicare-covered preventive care services at a $0 copay*.
What are preventive services?
Preventive services include routine health care such as annual checkups, health screenings, immunizations, and other services that may help to prevent health problems. Preventive care can sometimes uncover a health condition or problem before you begin to show any symptoms. It's safer, easier, and more cost-effective to prevent health issues than to treat them. Plus, we offer more than 20 Medicare-covered preventive care services at a $0 copay*.
Some of the preventive health services include:
- Annual wellness visit
- Cardiovascular screenings
- Colorectal cancer screenings
- Flu vaccine**
- Mammogram (breast cancer screening exam)
- Prostate cancer screenings
- Welcome to Medicare physical exam
- and more!
