What Is a Medicare Annual Wellness Visit?

A Medicare Annual Wellness Visit focuses on prevention and health planning.

It is designed to help you and your healthcare provider review your health risks and create or update a personalized prevention plan.

Your Visit May Include

The visit includes a health risk assessment, review of medical and family history and medications, routine measurements, assessment for cognitive impairment, and a personalized prevention plan. Your provider will also review appropriate preventive services and relevant health and safety risks.

Is an Annual Wellness Visit the Same as a Physical?

No. A Medicare Annual Wellness Visit is a preventive planning visit, not a routine physical examination.

Under Original Medicare, the covered wellness visit has no patient cost when the provider accepts assignment. Additional services may lead to charges. Medicare generally covers this visit once every 12 months after eligibility requirements are met. Confirm your eligibility, provider participation and plan benefits before scheduling.

If you are unsure which appointment you need, call the office.

Primary Care Beyond Your Wellness Visit

JMJ Family Health also provides ongoing primary care, chronic disease management, acute visits and other services for Medicare patients.

Having preventive and ongoing care within the same practice can make it easier to keep your healthcare connected.
