Understanding Medicare Advantage Wellness Visits (Healthy Blue + Medicare (HMO D-SNP))

Medicare Advantage wellness visits are office visits that focus on preventive care, screenings, and advanced care planning.

These visits are an important opportunity to have in-depth conversation with patients to assess their health status, update important information such as health history and medications, and develop personalized prevention plans.

Scheduling patients for a wellness visit removes the time constraints of trying to assess the patient’s preventive needs during a problem-oriented visit, as well as offer providers the opportunity to be reimbursed for this important work.
