Preventive care is intended to help identify or prevent health problems before they become more serious.
Depending on the country and insurance plan, preventive services can include things such as:
- Vaccinations
- Screening tests
- Routine checkups
- Certain counseling services
For U.S. Marketplace plans, many preventive services are covered without cost-sharing when the applicable requirements are met, particularly when the service is provided by an in-network provider.
Coverage rules vary, so check your plan before assuming a particular service is free.
