Preventive services consist of healthcare services that include check-ups, patient counseling, and screenings to prevent illness, disease and other health-related problems. Preventive services are intended to help people remain healthy and to detect any health-related problems early while there is a better chance of recovery. It is recommended that adults and children aim to visit their doctor for regular check-ups, even if they feel healthy, to perform disease screening, identify risk factors for disease, discuss tips for a healthy and balanced lifestyle, stay up to date with immunizations and boosters, and maintain a good relationship with a healthcare provider.
