Annual Wellness Visits
Take advantage of your medicare benefits
Calyx Health welcomes all new patients to its clinic with a Medicare Annual Wellness Visit—a 60- to 90-minute visit that includes:
Health-risk assessment
Medical and family history review
Functional assessment
Social determinants of health
Mental health and cognition screening
At the end of this visit, you'll receive a personalized Preventive Screening Checklist so you know which preventive steps to take over the next 5-10 years and, if relevant, referrals to counseling services or programs that provide health advice, promote wellness, or reduce identified risk factors.
