Preventive Care
Preventive check-ups and screenings can help find illnesses and medical problems early and improve the health of you and everyone in your family. Your health plan covers screenings and services with no out-of-pocket costs, like copays or coinsurance, as long as you visit a doctor in your plan’s provider network. This is true even if you haven’t met your deductible, if your plan has one.
For more details on what preventive services are covered at no cost to you, call a BCBSTX Personal Health Assistant or see Covered Preventive Services in the Master Benefit Plan Document at www.healthselectoftexas.com on the “Publications and Forms” page.
Learn more on immunization recommendations and schedules by visiting the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website at www.cdc.gov/vaccines.
Care Management
BCBSTX care management clinicians can review your treatment plan, provide educational content and help coordinate care among your providers. If you have questions about asthma, cancer, COPD, diabetes, cardiac conditions or any other health issue that you or your covered family members are dealing with, call BCBSTX toll-free at (800) 252-8039, Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. - 6:30 p.m. CT and ask to speak with a clinician.
Martha has been feeling under the weather. She thinks she might have the flu, but can’t see her PCP until Monday. Her husband took the car to work and won’t be back until the evening to take her to an urgent care clinic.
Thanks to her HealthSelect plan, Martha has other options for getting care, like Virtual Visits.
Martha has already registered for Virtual Visits, so she goes online and schedules an appointment. She’s able to visit with a doctor on her computer in the comfort of her home.
The doctor sends a prescription to Martha’s pharmacy, and her husband picks it up on his way home. And her HealthSelect of Texas plan covers medical Virtual Visits at 100%.
Call a BCBSTX Personal Health Assistant toll-free at (800) 252-8039, Monday - Friday 7 a.m. - 7 p.m. and Saturday 7 a.m. - 3 p.m. CT 7
