Many people don’t realize that their health insurance plan will pay for them to receive an annual physical by their doctor at little or no cost to them. Over the past few years, health insurers have initiated programs that keep people healthy and encouraging individuals to receive an annual physical is part of those programs. Unlike in the past, these exams typically do not have a co-pay or deductible involved.
Annual physicals find and help treat problems and early intervention helps cure and even prevent diseases and disorders. During a physical, physicians can answer any health questions and may give recommended immunizations that protect from communicable diseases. They may screen for a number of conditions, including cholesterol levels, diabetes and high blood pressure. Physicians may also screen for a number of common cancers, including breast, cervical, prostate and skin.
