Get inspired for better health

We want you to live your healthiest, happiest life — so we offer resources to help support and motivate you to be your best.

Annual physical and wellness visits

Good health starts with prevention, and preventive care should start early in the year, by scheduling your annual physical and wellness visit.

What’s the difference?

  • A physical is a head-to-toe exam, blood sugar test and cholesterol test — It’s a good time to review your medications and/or health concerns
  • A wellness visit includes a blood pressure check, height and weight measurement and body mass index (BMI) test

What’s the plan?

  • Your plan covers one physical exam and one wellness visit per calendar year
  • You can ask your provider to combine the visits into one convenient annual care appointment*
  • You and your provider can work as a team to create a preventive care plan for the year
