Stay healthy with preventative care: it’s covered!
Did you know that 7 out of 10 Americans die each year from chronic diseases—many of which are preventable if detected early? That’s why preventative care is so important. It’s not just about avoiding illness; it’s about staying ahead of it.
Preventative care involves regular check-ups, screenings, and counseling designed to catch potential health issues early. By staying on top of your health with annual physicals and routine blood work, your primary care provider can monitor changes and act before a minor issue becomes a major one.
