Reminder: Annual wellness visit covered by calendar year

We’re committed to supporting our members in maintaining their optimal health, as well as working with our provider partners to further that common goal. Annual wellness visits are vital to this effort, offering an opportunity for providers and members to collaborate on preventive care and detect and address health issues early, and empowering members to take charge of their health.

As a reminder, CarePartners of Connecticut uses a calendar year (Jan. 1 through Dec. 31) for coverage of annual wellness visits. This means that a member can schedule a wellness visit fewer than 365 days after their previous visit, so long as the visits are in different calendar years (see example below).
