In order to see how healthy you are, it is important to see your doctor every year. Regular check-ups help you and your doctor know how well your body is working and how to keep healthy from day to day. MDwise wants to help you stay healthy.
- Get to know your doctor.
- Get preventive services that are needed for your age.

- Get medicine for health problems you may have.
- Get advice on eating better, being active, and other healthy living tips.
Getting regular check-ups is the key to better health. MDwise covers check-ups (preventive care) because it keeps you healthy and allows the doctor to know how healthy you are too! This Preventive Care Guide lets you know what care or other screenings you may need for someone your age and gender.
Please remember that you are allowed unlimited preventive services. At the end of the year, if all appropriate preventive services were received, the entire account balance (including the State's portion) stays in your POWER Account. This means you will owe less in your second year. However, if you do not get your recommended preventive health services, only what is left of your contribution stays in the POWER Account. The State's portion will go back to the State. |
