A preventive medicine evaluation is thorough. The physician will assess your personal and family medical history, lifestyle factors (diet, exercise, sleep, stress), current health metrics (blood pressure, cholesterol, glucose), and relevant screening test results. They create a personalized prevention plan that addresses your highest-priority risks. Workplace evaluations include exposure assessments and fitness-for-duty testing specific to your job requirements.
UC Health and TriHealth are the two largest systems. If your employer is based in Cincinnati, your plan likely favors one over the other. Check before your first appointment to avoid surprise bills.
