Description
As suggested by its name, preventive healthcare focuses on preventing health issues before they start or keeping existing ones from worsening. Not only will this save money on expensive emergency treatments later on, but it also ensures that health conditions will rarely develop to an emergency level. Frequent check-ups mean that any problems will be noticed quickly and a treatment plan can be developed in time. For instance, let’s say a woman develops breast cancer without realizing it. If she doesn’t notice anything unusual and doesn’t visit a doctor for a well woman exam, it’s possible that the cancer will continue to grow until treatment is very difficult and expensive. On the other hand, if this same woman takes care to examine her own body and visit a doctor regularly for preventive health check-ups, the cancer will be discovered and treated quickly, minimizing both expenses and long-term health problems for the patient.
