Which Types of Preventative Care are Covered by Health Insurance?

Consultation With DoctorJust like a responsible home owner performs regular maintenance to prevent much bigger problems, so too should you partake in preventative care to manage your health. Many people visit doctors only when they get sick. However, certain health concerns may not present physical symptoms in the early stages, meaning that once you notice a problem, it could be too late for effective treatment.

The regular monitoring of your health can be extremely beneficial, especially since many preventative treatments are now covered for free by all health insurance plans. Discovering that you have high cholesterol signals you to make dietary changes, which can help prevent a heart attack. Having an abnormal lump or mole removed can prevent the possible formation of cancer. Similar preventative measures are now available to you, free of co-payments so long as the services are provided by in-network doctors.

Your healthcare now offers some of the following preventative services, completely free of charge:
  • Yearly checkups
  • Various immunizations
  • Cholesterol screening
  • Blood pressure screening
  • Anemia screening
  • Abdominal aortic aneurysm screening
  • Colorectal cancer screening
  • Breast cancer mammography screening
  • Cervical cancer screening
  • Contraception
  • Urinary tract or other infection screening
  • Osteoporosis screening
  • Diabetes (Type 2) screening
  • Gestational diabetes screening
  • Preventive services for children
  • Various immunizations
  • Developmental screening and behavioral assessments
  • Vision screening
  • Autism screening
  • Sickle cell screening
Remember, though these services are free, treatment for any issues that are discovered will be covered under the parameters of your healthcare plan. Since you now must purchase health insurance, you might as well benefit from participating in the free preventative services that can save your life.

Learn more about improving your health. Call First Insurance Group at (502) 348-5921 for more information on Lexington health insurance.
