Stay Up to Date on Medicare!
- A preventive service offered by Medicare to beneficiaries.
- It includes a review of your medical and family history, current health conditions, and a discussion of any risk factors.
- The healthcare provider may perform measurements such as height, weight, blood pressure, and other routine assessments.
- The primary goal is to develop or update a personalized prevention plan to help prevent disease and disability based on your current health and risk factors.
- Medicare typically covers this visit annually.
- A physical exam is a broader examination of your overall health and is not considered a routine preventive service under Medicare.
- It may involve a more comprehensive examination, including a head-to-toe assessment of your body systems.
- Physical exams are often performed when experiencing specific symptoms or as part of a diagnostic evaluation.
- While Medicare may cover certain aspects of a physical exam, it depends on the nature of the exam and the medical necessity. As a rule, Medicare does not cover an annual physical. The exam and any tests your doctor orders are separate services, and you may have costs related to each depending on your Medicare plan.
