In recent years, health care has been focused on preventive medicine. Preventive medicine emphasizes the promotion of a healthy lifestyle and proactively monitoring for various health conditions including hypertension, diabetes or cancers. To support these efforts, most commercial insurance providers now cover the cost of an annual wellness exam provided by an in-network provider*. Preventive medical care is important because it provides you and your care team with an opportunity to assess your current health, which can be useful for anticipating future health care needs.
Your primary care physician, also commonly known as a PCP, is your main health care provider and is involved in your short and long-term medical care. Your PCP provides preventive care, teaches healthy lifestyle choices, identifies and treats common medical conditions, assesses the urgency of your medical problems and refers you to medical specialists when necessary.
