Preventive care

What is the difference between a physical and a wellness visit?

Both focus on keeping you healthy, but they can differ in what is covered. A wellness visit emphasizes prevention, screenings, and counseling, while a physical exam may include a more thorough hands-on examination. Ask the team what your visit will include.

What does a wellness visit focus on?

A wellness visit emphasizes prevention: reviewing your history, updating screenings and vaccinations, and counseling on healthy habits and risk factors.

What does a physical exam include?

A physical exam may include a more thorough hands-on examination of your body systems, in addition to the history and preventive components of a wellness visit.

Why does the difference matter?

The distinction can matter for insurance coverage and for what your provider is able to assess. Knowing what your visit includes helps you prepare.

How do I know what my visit covers?

Ask the team at 770-630-6281 what your scheduled visit will include and what your plan covers. Your provider can also clarify during the visit.
