Palo Alto Medical Foundation offers Annual Medicare Wellness Shared Medical Appointments (SMAs) in group settings of eight to 12 patients who want a more thorough and comprehensive annual wellness exam. We offer the annual wellness visit in both English and Spanish at select PAMF locations.
During your annual visit, you’ll complete a mini cognition test and a brief ambulation test. Your health provider will also address home health issues, including:
- Fall prevention
- Dementia signs and memory tips
- Medication risks
- Cardiovascular health and risk factors
- Health and wellness related to particular medical conditions
- Lifestyle modifications
- Optional treatment plans
- Possible prescription refills
Your care provider will be able to order tests and procedures. This appointment can take the place of your traditional one-on-one annual visit. Patient responses are extremely positive within this enriching and engaging environment.
Locations: Palo Alto Medical Foundation, select Bay Area locations
