What is a Medicare Wellness Assessment?
This is a benefit provided to patients with a Medicare insurance plan. It is conducted by a dedicated
Medical Wellness Provider at Austin Regional Clinic.
At these visits you can expect a review of your health that includes the following:
- Vaccinations
- Cancer screenings
- Heart and diabetic screenings when indicated
- Gait and fall risk
- Osteoporosis screening
For more information about these assessments, please visit the
medicare.gov website.
Scheduling your Appointment
Call 512-421-4881 to schedule your Medicare Wellness Assessments. You will receive an automated reminder call two days before the appointment.
What is the cost to me?
Medicare plans provide this benefit at no cost to the patient. You are eligible for this assessment every 365 days.
You may have to pay a coinsurance, and the Part B deductible may apply, if your doctor or Medicare Wellness Provider performs tests or services that aren’t covered under these preventive benefits.
Generally if you require these additional tests, we will make an appointment for you with your primary care provider to address your additional healthcare needs.
