I Want to Get Screened, Now What?
Begin by making an appointment with your Health Care Professional. During this visit, your Provider will need to discuss and document your health history and risk factors.
This is commonly called a Shared Decision Making Visit and is very important in making sure your screening is eligible for third-party financial coverage.
Bring your questions and concerns! If you need to, bring a written list of your thoughts.
Your Provider is required to present the pros and cons of screening and additional testing, so don’t be alarmed by these details. Of course, if you are currently smoking, your Provider will also discuss tools to help you quit.
Nicotine replacement, Cessation Programs, and other resources are available. You’re not on your own!
