Does My Insurance Cover Year-End Skin Exams?

Depending on your insurance plan, your annual skin exam could be low or even no cost to you. Many insurance plans cover preventive care visits at 100%, especially if you’ve met your yearly deductible maximum. This means your visit to Florida Academic Dermatology Center may be fully covered, leaving you with one less expense to worry about during the holiday season.

To ensure there are no surprises, check the terms of your insurance policy before scheduling your appointment. Here are a few ways to confirm your coverage:

• Review Your Insurance Paperwork: Take a close look at the benefits outlined in your policy documents.
• Contact Your Insurance Provider: Reach out by phone or log in online to get detailed information about your coverage.
• Use Your Provider’s Mobile App: Many insurers offer user-friendly apps where you can quickly verify what’s covered under your plan.

Why Do I Need an Annual Skin Check?

Your skin plays a critical role as your body’s first line of defense against injuries, infections, and other health concerns. That’s why an annual skin exam performed by a board-certified dermatologist like Dr. Frank Don is essential to maintaining your overall well-being.

Here’s why you should prioritize your annual skin exam:

• Early Detection of Skin Cancer: Florida ranks 3rd in the U.S. for new cases of skin cancer, making routine skin checks vital for early detection and treatment.
• Preventive Care: Even minor skin changes can indicate underlying health issues. Regular skin exams can identify and address concerns before they become serious.
• Expert Care: Dr. Don is not only a dermatologist but also a Mohs surgeon, specializing in precise and effective skin cancer treatment. His expertise ensures you receive the best possible care for your skin health.
