wellness visit
Routine health exam
A wellness visit is a routine medical appointment focused on preventive care rather than treating illness or injury.
The doctor checks vital signs, reviews health history, and may order screenings appropriate to your age and risk factors.
Insurance often covers wellness visits fully, distinguishing them from sick visits that address specific complaints: I scheduled my annual wellness visit for next month.
