What is Health
Screening?
Health screening involves a series of screening tests and evaluations performed by a healthcare provider to detect certain diseases, assess your overall health, and evaluate your risk factors based on your family history, age, and lifestyle. A screening test is a proactive measure to detect potential health disorders in asymptomatic individuals, allowing for early disease detection, subsequent lifestyle changes, or monitoring. By addressing potential concerns early, these screenings play a vital role in disease prevention and long-term wellness.

Health Screening FAQ
1. What is health screening, and why is it important?
Health screening involves performing screening tests to detect health conditions or certain diseases early, often before
symptoms appear. These tests are crucial for assessing risk factors, especially for individuals with a concerning family history
or certain lifestyle habits. Early detection allows for timely prevention, treatment, and management of diseases like heart
disease, diabetes, and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), improving overall health outcomes.
2. How do I know which screening tests I need?
The screening tests you need depend on your age, medical history, and specific risk factors. Your healthcare provider will assess your unique circumstances, including your family history, to recommend appropriate health screenings. Common tests include pap tests for women’s health, blood tests for cholesterol or glucose levels, and cancer or mental health screenings to address concerns like anxiety or depression. Always talk to your doctor to determine the right plan for you.
3. Are health screenings expensive?
The cost of health screenings varies based on the type and number of screening tests performed. Many preventive services, such as annual physicals or blood tests, are covered by insurance plans. It’s essential to check with your insurance provider to understand your coverage. Our clinic also provides transparent pricing and payment options to make screenings accessible for everyone.
4. What happens during a health screening?
During a health screening, your doctor will evaluate your symptoms (if any), review your medical history, and perform specific tests to identify potential diseases or risk factors. For example, a pap test screens for cervical cancer in women’s health, while a body mass index (BMI) evaluation assesses your risk for obesity-related conditions. After the screening, your test results are reviewed to determine if further evaluation or treatment is necessary.
5. How often should I get health screenings?
The frequency of health screenings depends on your age, risk factors, and overall health. For example, adults should undergo annual physical exams, while certain diseases like cervical cancer may require pap tests every three years. Regular checkups help your doctor monitor your health, update screening tests, and adjust preventive services as needed. Your healthcare provider will guide you on the best schedule to stay proactive about your health.
