3 reasons to get your AWV 1. You can catch problems early.

A yearly visit helps your doctor see changes in your health. If you skip this check-in, important details could be missedpersonalized care plan.

2. I t helps your doctor understand you better.

When you skip the AWV, you end up only seeing your doctor when you’re sick. It’s harder for someone to care for you when they don’t know you as well.

3. It’s no cost to you.

There’s no charge and no copay for your AWV. Just remember that you need to have your AWV with your doctor every year. Or a doctor who accepts Medicare.
