Preventive/Routine Care

AmeriHealth Mercy encourages you to get the right preventive/routine care you need. It is important that you and your family get this care to avoid getting sick. Please go to the following areas to learn more:

• Dental
  Your dentist will give you regular check-ups and take care of your dental care. Members who are eligible for dental services can get a routine dental exam and cleaning once every 6 months.*

• Eye
  All Amerihealth Mercy members are eligible for a routine eye exam. Call your eye doctor to schedule an eye exam.

• Your Primary Care Practitioner (PCP)
  When you join Amerihealth Mercy Health Plan, you choose a PCP. Your PCP oversees your health care. He or she is responsible for taking care of your health and, when necessary, arranging care for you from other health care providers.

• Testing for Breast Cancer
  AmeriHealth Mercy will continue to cover mammograms (X-ray of the breast) for all women when it is ordered by the doctor. Getting tested is the best way for women to lower the risk of dying from breast cancer. Our female members over 40 need to talk to their doctors about getting a mammogram.

• It Pays To Stay Healthy
  Having an idea of what AmeriHealthMercy pays for different health care services will show you that it really pays to keep yourself healthy!
