Medicare preventive services.
Preventive services, such as mammograms and colorectal cancer screenings, can save lives. Since 1997, Medicare has had a renewed emphasis on wellness through its expanded preventive health benefits. In this brief we discuss the importance of screenings and prevention, focusing specifically on Medicare coverage of these benefits. Finally we spotlight the National Diabetes Education Program, an awareness campaign that you and your organization can be part of.
