We offer Medicare Annual Wellness Visits to help patients take a proactive approach to maintaining good health through early disease detection and a personalized prevention plan.
These visits are conducted by phone, are 100% covered by Medicare and can be scheduled once every 12 months.
Your Medicare Annual Wellness Visit will include:
- A routine check of your height, weight, blood pressure and body mass index (BMI).
- A review of the medications, supplements and vitamins you are currently taking.
- An assessment of your personal and family medical history.
- A review of your daily routines and home safety, including your risk for falls or injury.
- Screening for mood or memory concerns that may impact your health and wellbeing.
- The creation of a personalized prevention plan that is clear, easy to follow and tailored to you.
- Guidance on making decisions about the care you would want if you become unable to make decisions yourself. Your care team can support you in discussing your wishes with your loved ones.
- Personalized health advice based on your risk factors, medical conditions and needs.
- Your care team can assist you in planning to improve weight and nutrition, physical activity, tobacco cessation and fall prevention.
- Support in keeping your vaccines up to date. Receiving your annual flu and pneumonia vaccines is important for preventing illnesses that could lead to hospitalization.
