Preventive care helps prevent illness, detect medical conditions, and keep people healthy. This webinar will explore Medicare's coverage of preventive care, how it differs from diagnostic care, and how to help clients navigate coverage. We'll review screenings and vaccines, share practical tips for incorporating preventive care in counseling, and highlight resources that professionals can use to help people with Medicare stay healthy.
