Protect your health with preventive care

APWU Health Plan covers checkups and screenings at no cost when you see providers in our network.

Preventive care can help you stay healthy and identify health issues early, when treatment is more likely to succeed.

Annual checkups

It’s important to see your doctor each year, even if you feel healthy.

Well-child visits

Regular exams and tests track your child’s health and development.

Childhood immunizations

Vaccines help protect kids from viruses and bacteria that cause diseases.

Blood pressure screenings

Hypertension often has no symptoms, so check your numbers regularly. 

Diabetes screenings

Early detection and treatment can lower the risk of complications.

Colorectal cancer screenings

Colonoscopy is the gold standard for colorectal cancer screenings.

Cervical cancer screenings

Screening tests include a Pap test and HPV test.

Breast cancer screenings

Treatment is more likely to be successful the sooner cancer is detected.

Maternity care

Think you may be pregnant? Schedule your first prenatal visit.

Find a doctor

The High Option and Consumer Driven Option feature 1.7 million providers in the UnitedHealthcare network.

Contraception

FDA-approved contraceptive drugs and devices are covered 100%.

Flu shots

Everyone 6 months of age and older should get a flu shot each year. 

Certain preventive care items and services, including immunizations, are provided as specified by applicable law, including the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA), with no cost-sharing to you. These services may be based on your age and other health factors. Other routine services may be covered under your plan, and some plans may require copayments, coinsurance or deductibles for these benefits. Always review your benefit plan documents to determine your specific coverage details.
