Preventive care services, like checkups, vaccines, and screening can help catch problems early and keep you feeling your best.

Checkups: Regular visits with your doctor to track your overall health.
Vaccines: Protect against diseases like flu, pneumonia, and COVID-19.
Screening: is a way to find a disease before symptoms appear, early detection can improve the chances of successful treatment.

Screenings for Women
✔️ Pap test: Detects cervical cancer early.
✔️ Mammogram: X-ray screening that finds breast cancer when it’s most treatable.

Screenings for Men
✔️ Testicular self-exam: Helps detect testicular cancer early.
✔️ Prostate cancer screening: Talk to your doctor about if and when this is right for you.

Preventive screenings are one of the most powerful ways to protect your health. Recommendations vary by age, gender, and personal risk factors, so talk to your doctor about what’s right for you.
