Preventive exams, such as annual wellness exams, screening tests, dental and vision exams help you and your provider prevent illnesses before they cause you symptoms or problems. The frequency for each exam varies by age and gender. These preventive exams are an important opportunity to discuss current health concerns, health history and any questions you may have. This is a time to assess your current health and make lifestyle choices about drinking, smoking, nutrition or physical activity. See the LiveWELL Health Plan Preventive Care Guide for more information.
