Taking an active role in your health is the best way to prevent disease, get great care, and reduce costs at the same time. A smart healthcare consumer doesn’t just ask the right questions of their doctor, but knows it’s also about prevention, self-care, and knowing where to find resources. By being a smart healthcare consumer you can make good decisions that will have a positive impact on your physical and financial health. Here are some tips:

Choosing a Primary Care Physician (PCP) - Putting in as much time to select a new vehicle or appliance as you do your PCP will benefit you greatly.

Maintain a Healthy Lifestyle - Healthy living is one area of your life you can control. By exercising regularly, eating a healthy diet, being tobacco free, and getting adequate rest, you may help to ward off preventable chronic conditions such as diabetes, cancer, and cardiovascular disease.

Practice Prevention - By getting the age-appropriate health screenings and immunizations, you are taking a proactive approach to prevent potential conditions. In addition, by knowing what you can do at home to help minimize the symptoms of a cold or flu, you can prevent unnecessary trips to the doctor’s office.

Look for Ways to Save Money - There are many ways to save money when it comes to seeking care, such as using in-network doctors and facilities. Look for ways to save on your prescription drugs by asking for a generic equivalent or using the mail order option. You should also check your medical bills and explanation of benefits for accuracy, and seek the most appropriate and cost-effective places for your condition.

Finally, you can earn up to 100 Healthy Lifestyle Activity Points(HLAPs) by signing up and completing the Self-Care Essentials Program.
