preventive screenings
Catching problems early
Preventive screenings are medical tests performed on people who show no symptoms, intended to detect disease early when treatment is most effective.
Common examples include mammograms, colonoscopies, and cholesterol checks.
The phrase appears frequently in healthcare policy discussions: Insurance plans must cover preventive screenings without copays.
