Additional screenings would require a member to pay a copayment or coinsurance. These services are covered in full when rendered by an in-network/participating provider. There may be other services performed in conjunction with the above preventive care services. These other services will be subject to any applicable member liability per your contract.

Independent Health is a Medicare Advantage organization with a Medicare contract offering HMO, HMO-SNP, HMO-POS and PPO plans. Enrollment in Independent Health depends on contract renewal.
