February isn’t just about Valentine’s Day—it’s American Heart Month. As your insurance partner, I want to make sure you’re getting the most out of your health plan to keep your heart healthy for years to come.
Did you know that most Medicare and ACA (Marketplace) plans cover several heart-healthy services at $0 out-of-pocket cost?
Here are 3 things to consider doing this month:
- Schedule your Annual Wellness Visit: This is the perfect time to “know your numbers”—blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar. Catching small issues now prevents big problems later.
- Check your Preventive Screenings: Many plans cover cardiovascular screenings and even nutrition counseling with no co-pay.
- Explore “Extra” Benefits: If you’re on a Medicare Advantage plan, you may have access to gym memberships (like SilverSneakers) or even allowances for heart-healthy groceries.
