Get regular preventive health care

Staying healthy doesn't mean staying away from the doctor. Priority Health plans encourage you to get regular physicals, mammograms, well-baby exams and other services. Often, we pay 100% of the cost.

Tools to help you

    Find out when to get physicals, screenings, and vaccinations. Go to the Guidelines now.
  • Take a health risk appraisal (HRA) 
    Priority Health members can take the WebMD® HealthQuotient® questionnaire to get an appraisal of your health risks, and see how you score against people in your age group. Take the risk appraisal now.
  • Monitor your BMI (body mass index)
    Use the online calculator to find your BMI, then print a copy of one of these information sheets, which will give you examples of healthy and unhealthy BMI numbers and suggestions for achieving and maintaining a healthy weight. Take it with you on your next doctor visit, so you know what your BMI number means.
