This is an appointment to discuss your preventative care in the upcoming year
This appointment is called the Annual Wellness Visit. The Annual Wellness Visit is similar to the one-time Welcome to Medicare preventive visit but has important differences. For example, like the Welcome to Medicare visit, the Annual Wellness Visit is not a head-to-toe physical. However, you cannot receive your Annual Wellness Visit within the first year you are enrolled in Medicare or within the same year you have your Welcome to Medicare exam.
During the first Annual Wellness Visit, you and your doctor or health care provider will create a prevention plan based on your needs. As part of the visit, your doctor will:
Annual Wellness Visits after your first visit may be slightly different. As part of subsequent wellness visits, your doctor will:
Original Medicare covers the Annual Wellness Visit with no coinsurance or deductible if you see doctors or other health care providers who accept the Medicare approved amount in full.
Medicare Advantage Plans cover all preventive services the same as Original Medicare. This means Medicare Advantage Plans will not be allowed to charge cost-sharing fees (coinsurances, copays or deductibles) for preventive services that Original Medicare does not charge for as long as you see innetwork providers. If you see providers that are not in your plan’s network, charges will typically apply.
Note: If you receive any additional services or screenings during the Annual Wellness Visit, then you may have an additional charge for those services. Services not included in the Annual Wellness Visit will be billed separately. You may be charged your usual copay and deductible if the additional service is covered by Medicare.
If you receive any additional services not covered under Medicare, such as a routine hearing exam, then you or your supplemental insurance will be responsible for 100% of its cost.
