If you have Medicare Part B, you’re entitled to a free yearly visit focused on keeping you healthy as you age. It’s called the Medicare Annual Wellness Visit, and at Trusted Care Clinic in Richardson, we make it simple to schedule, easy to attend, and genuinely useful, not just a checkbox appointment.
Dr. Rofaida El Haj Mousa and our care team will sit down with you, review your full health picture, and build a prevention plan tailored to the next several years of your life.
Most chronic conditions, including diabetes, heart disease, and certain cancers, are far more treatable when caught early. The Annual Wellness Visit is one of the few times each year specifically dedicated to looking ahead instead of reacting to problems.
It’s also a chance to talk openly about things that don’t always come up in a 15-minute sick visit: memory concerns, balance issues, sleep problems, mood, medication side effects, and the small changes that can quietly add up over time.
The Medicare Annual Wellness Visit (AWV) is a yearly preventive appointment covered 100% by Medicare Part B. There is no copay, no deductible, and no out-of-pocket cost when you see a participating provider like Trusted Care Clinic.
It’s not a physical exam in the traditional sense. Instead, it’s a structured conversation and screening process built around one goal: catching health risks early and helping you stay independent longer. You’re eligible for one Annual Wellness Visit every 12 months, starting 12 months after you enroll in Part B.
Your Medicare Annual Wellness Visit at Trusted Care Clinic typically takes 30 to 45 minutes and includes:
01
A health risk assessment covering your medical history, lifestyle, and current concerns
02
Measurements of height, weight, blood pressure, and body mass index
03
A cognitive screening to check memory and thinking ability
04
A depression and mood screening
05
A review of your current medications and supplements
06
A functional ability and fall-risk assessment
07
A personalized written prevention plan covering the next 5 to 10 years
08
A schedule of recommended screenings, vaccines, and follow-ups based on your age and risk factors
You’ll leave with a clear, written roadmap, not just verbal advice you have to remember on the drive home.
This is the question we get asked most often, and it’s an important one. They sound similar but they’re very different appointments:
| Feature | Medicare Annual Wellness Visit | Annual Physical Exam |
|---|---|---|
| Cost to you | $0 with Medicare Part B | Usually has a copay or charge |
| Hands-on physical exam | LimitedHeight, weight, BP, BMI | Full head-to-toe exam |
| Health risk assessment | Yes Required part of the visit | Not standard |
| Personalized prevention plan | Yes Written 5 to 10 year plan | No |
| Cognitive screening | Yes Required | Only if requested |
| Treats new problems | No Separate appointment needed | Yes |
Many of our patients book both, the Medicare Wellness Visit for prevention planning, and a separate physical or problem-focused visit when they need hands-on care.
