If you are an eligible Priority Health Medicare, Medicaid or Individual plan member, a representative from our vendor partner may contact you to schedule an in-home health assessment. This assessment is voluntary and offered at no cost to you.
What is an in-home health assessment?
An in-home health assessment is a preventive checkup that takes place in a comfortable setting of your choice. A nurse practitioner or other health care provider will come to you. The visit can take place at your home or the home of a friend or family member (who are welcome to attend with you). These visits are not meant to replace regular visits with your primary care provider (PCP).
Why does Priority Health offer in-home health assessments?
We offer in-home health assessments to help:
- Catch potential health issues early
- Make sure your medications are working safely and effectively
- Support ongoing conditions like diabetes, heart disease, etc.
- Help you get the most out of your health plan benefits
The goal is to better understand your health needs and catch small issues before they become bigger problems.
Why should I take advantage of an in-home health assessment?
An in-home health assessment is an easy way to check in on your health, ask questions, and gain peace of mind—and it’s offered at no cost to you. Your participation won't affect your health plan coverage or any care you're receiving from your provider. Information gathered during your health assessment will be shared with you and your PCP to help you manage your care together. Plan to schedule your in-home health assessment staggered from your annual physical so you can get care all year long.
What to expect during an in-home health assessment
An in-home health assessment usually lasts about 45 minutes.
During the visit, you'll be able to:
- Ask questions about your health
- Share concerns that may have come up since your last medical visit
- Review your vital signs and medications
The health care provider will:
- Take your blood pressure
- Listen to your heart
- Ask about your medications
- Ask about your health history and other health issues
- Explain more about your health
- Offer you ideas and advice
After your visit you'll receive a personal checklist of things to discuss with your PCP at your next appointment. A summary of your visit will also be sent both to you and your PCP.
