What are preventive services?
- Preventive services are routine health care procedures such as screening, testing, and counseling to prevent illness, disease, and other health problems.
- These free services can help you catch the disease early, when treatment is likely to be most effective.
- Note: Preventive services are free that’s all From a doctor or other provider within the plan’s network. (A network is a facility, provider, and supplier contracted by a health insurance company to provide medical services. Contact your insurance company to find out which providers are “in network.”)
