Now that you have Marketplace health coverage, learn what you can do to stay healthy and get the care you need:
Tips for staying healthy
- Make time for physical activity, healthy eating, relaxation, and sleep.
- Get the preventive services that are right for you.
- Don’t forget to schedule follow-up visits. Ask your provider to notify you in advance when recommended health screenings should occur.
- If you have questions or concerns between visits, just call your provider. It’s their job to help answer questions you have about your health.
Tips for getting proper care
- You can get health care many different places, including the emergency department. But it’s best to get routine care and recommended preventive services from a primary care provider. They’ll work with you to ensure you get the right services, manage chronic conditions, and improve your general health and well-being.
- Generally, you can find primary care providers in offices, clinics, and health centers.
- Not all types of providers and facilities take all insurance plans or types of coverage. Before you make an appointment, call the office to make sure they accept your coverage.
