Prevention Guidelines
The best healthcare is preventive healthcare. When conditions are caught quickly and treated appropriately, or prevented entirely, you can stay healthier and spend less on healthcare. These are some guidelines to help you achieve the best outcomes for your health.
The goal is to find a disease early so lifestyle changes can be made and you can be watched more closely to lower the risk of disease, or to find it early enough to treat it most effectively.
Type 2 diabetes or prediabetes | All adults starting at age 45 and adults with no symptoms at any age who are overweight or obese and have 1 or more additional risk factors for diabetes | At least every 3 years |
Blood pressure | All adults | Yearly checkup if your blood pressure is normal.
|
Breast cancer | All women | Screening with a mammogram every year is an option starting at age 40. |
