An Ounce of Prevention = A Pound of Cure: Annual Wellness Exam

It may be a cliché, but an ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure when it comes to an annual preventive exam. An annual wellness exam identifies potential health issues in the early stages when they may be easier and less costly to treat. Early detection of medical problems, illnesses, and diseases helps your doctor provide proactive care and treatment. It is more important than ever to make your health a priority and not delay this important wellness screening. Your primary care provider can also help you coordinate what tests and vaccinations are right for you.

An annual preventive exam generally includes:

  • Vital signs
  • Heart & lung exam
  • Head, neck & abdominal exam
  • Muscle strength, balance, reflexes

For those employees on an Emory medical plan, there is no out-of-pocket cost for an annual preventive exam. If you don’t have a doctor and you are on an Emory medical plan, you can search for primary care providers who participate in the Aetna health plans at www.aetna.com/docfind/custom/emory or you may call Aetna at 800-847-9026. Kaiser Permanente members may search for facilities and primary care providers at www.kp.org/doctors, or you may call 404-365-0966.

Remember to get your annual preventive exam/annual checkup early and earn a $100 medical plan incentive. All Emory employees and spouses who are part of Emory’s medical plan are eligible. For women, a well-adult (or well-woman) visit will count for this incentive. Visit our webpage on preventive exams to learn more about the annual wellness exam and visit our webpage on rewards and incentives to learn about all incentives available in 2023.
