How Do You Really Feel?
When we are physically ill, we go to a doctor, take medicine and rest—we don't think twice about taking steps to feel better. Yet many of us don't treat our mental health the same way. When you're stressed, you have options—probably more than you think. A healthier, happier life is possible with these support and treatment options offered to our support and treatment options offered to our employees.
Not convinced these options are right for you? See three reasons medical professionals hesitate to seek behavioral health treatment and the facts behind why they shouldn't.
Preventive Care
A lifetime of good health starts with quality medical care throughout your life. Thanks to the Affordable Care Act (ACA), this care is now within the reach of all Americans. ACA requires health plans to eliminate cost sharing and cover preventive care services recommended by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF), guidelines specifically issued for women and adopted by Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA), the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices and the Bright Futures Guidelines of the Academy of Pediatrics.
The following recommendations are general guidelines for all ages and should not dictate the care you receive. Your doctor will let you know what tests and exams you may need based on your specific risk factors and overall health.
- Guidelines may change throughout the year based on new or revised laws and/or regulations and additional guidance.
- Services must be billed with a primary diagnosis of preventive, screening, counseling or wellness, if applicable, to qualify and other restrictions may apply.
- Your benefits plan may contain additional preventive care benefits, exclusions and limitations. Check your plan documents for a complete description of benefits, exclusions, limitations and condition of coverage.
- Grandfathered plans (a plan that hasn't changed since 2010) may have costs. See your plan documents to find your specific coverage and costs.
- Talk to your healthcare provider about a proper schedule of check-up visits.
