June is Men's Health Month, and our team at Premier Benefit Services is taking this moment to remind men — and the families who love them — just how important preventive care really is.
Regular screenings can catch issues early, support long-term wellness, and make a meaningful difference in overall health. Many of these screenings are fully covered through preventive care benefits, whether you're on Medicare, an ACA plan, or private health coverage.
Here are a few important screenings to keep on your radar:
• Cholesterol checks beginning around age 17 and repeated every 4–6 years
• Diabetes screenings starting at age 35, or earlier if risk factors are present
• Prostate cancer screenings around age 50, earlier for higher-risk individuals
• Colorectal cancer screenings beginning at age 45, typically every 10 years
• Ongoing mental health screenings at annual wellness visits
Every health journey is unique, and recommended screening timelines can vary based on age, family history, and risk factors. We encourage you to talk with your doctor about what is right for you.
If you’re unsure what preventive services your plan covers — whether it’s Medicare, a Medicare Advantage plan, or individual health coverage — our team is here to help you understand your benefits and make the most of them.
