100% Preventive Care Coverage

The UT Select Medical plan offers many preventive screenings and services with no copayment or coinsurance as long as you see a network provider and meet specific screening eligibility requirements. Some examples of services covered under this provision include: 

  • Routine physical exam
  • Well-woman exam
  • Immunizations – all ages
  • Osteoporosis screening
  • Colonoscopy
  • Mammogram

Please be aware that you may incur some cost if the preventive service is not the primary purpose of the visit or if your doctor bills for services that are not preventive. Eligible services are outlined in the Federal Regulations based on U.S. Preventive Service Task Force Recommendations.
