wellness visits

Routine health checkups

Wellness visits are routine medical appointments focused on preventive care rather than treating illness or injury.

Unlike sick visits, they involve checkups, screenings, and vaccinations when you feel fine: My insurance covers two wellness visits per year.

The term appears frequently in health insurance contexts, where wellness visits often have different coverage rules than other appointments.
