Annual wellness visit

Your annual wellness visit is a yearly visit with your primary care provider (PCP) that focuses on prevention. During the visit, your doctor can review your health history, medications, risk factors, and the preventive care you may need.

It is also a great time to ask questions, talk about health concerns, and plan next steps for screenings, vaccines, and follow-up care.

During your annual wellness visit, your PCP may:

• Review your current health and medical history
• Talk with you about your medications
• Check for health risks and safety concerns
• Recommend preventive screenings or vaccines
• Help create a plan for your ongoing care
