Health Maintenance and Screening Plans
Clinical preventive services, such as routine disease
screening and scheduled immunizations, are key to reducing death and disability
and improving the Nation’s health. Yet, despite the fact that these services
are covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and many private insurance plans under the
Affordable Care Act, millions of children, adolescents, and adults go without
clinical preventive services that could protect them from developing a number
of serious diseases or help them treat certain health conditions before they
worsen.
Discuss preventative services and ways to promote and
overcome the barriers in your clinical practice to deliver holistic care
including the recommended services for all patients across a lifespan. Please
include examples, evidence-basedinformation and references to support your
