Take Advantage of Your Preventive Services
A visit to the doctor shouldn’t only be for when you’re feeling under the weather. One of the most important ways you can safeguard your health and well-being is by taking advantage of preventive health services. By scheduling check-ups and getting the appropriate health screenings, you can identify health issues early on when they may be easier to treat. In the long run, these services can save you time, money, and discomfort.
All plans offered through Your Health Idaho must cover ten essential health benefits, including preventive services. This means that your health plan may cover these services without charging you a copayment or coinsurance, even if you have not met your yearly deductible.
