Primary care and preventive services

Routine healthcare may help you enjoy a longer and healthier life. Learn how you can get primary care and preventive services wherever you call home.

What are primary care and preventive services?

Primary care helps your healthcare provider identify any medical problems before they may become major. Preventive services can detect and fight against illnesses and diseases in earlier, more treatable stages.1 Together, they may help lower the risk of illness and help you save on medical care costs.

Virtual visits

When you’re sick and can’t visit your regular healthcare provider, or you need emotional well-being support, help is just a call away.

Some providers may offer virtual visits 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
