So happy I came across this app. I have a cold and I didn’t want to spend two hours at urgent care. I was able to get an appointment the same day. Doctor was very friendly and efficient and the best thing is I didn’t have to leave my home.
N.B., Sept 2021
I came to Plushcare for routine meds when COVID first hit, but have now chosen a primary care physician who is the kindest, most concerned and helpful doctor I have ever worked with.
J.P., Apr 2022
Very convenient from the comfort of your home, and flexible appointment availability! The doctor actually made the right (and critical) diagnosis and sent me to my specialist, who confirmed her online diagnosis. Very, very satisfied.
G.T., Apr 2022
I was debating whether going to an Emergency room or having a dispatch physician come to my home for an eye infection. I have a toddler and with everything going on with Covid I couldn’t take the chances of going to the ER. After some research I came across PlushCare — the doctor was extremely knowledgeable and he sent my prescription to the pharmacy even before we finished our call.
T.R., Jan 2022
My experience with Plush Care was amazing. I was able to get an appointment within 30 min of first logging in & my physician was extremely helpful & knowledgeable. I have already shared my experience with family & friends. It was the most relaxed, convenient appointment I've ever had & will definitely be using this service again.

Preventative care services play an important role in personal wellness and long-term health promotion. Here are some of the key benefits of prioritizing preventative care.
Preventative care can help address medical risk factors early, preventing them from becoming long-term health problems. By making healthy lifestyle choices guided by preventive care, you are making an investment in your overall health.
A primary care physician can work with you to develop a personalized preventive care plan. For example, you might consider regular wellness checks or periodic lab tests. By taking advantage of preventive services, patients can get a better picture of their overall health today, in order to make changes that can lead to a healthier tomorrow.
Preventative care can also serve as an important contributor to living a long life. Addressing potential health concerns sooner means that they can be treated prior to turning into more significant issues that may affect how long a person lives.
It's common sense: The more you take care of your health, the more likely it is that you will benefit in the form of greater overall wellness. Preventive care services play an essential role in helping you to live a healthier and happier life.
Preventive care means being proactive about your health, which means not only preserving your wellbeing, but also preventing health issues with costly consequences. The health care costs associated with long-term illness and chronic conditions can be difficult to manage, even with insurance coverage. Preventative care can help to catch major medical issues before they become chronic diseases that have a long-term impact on personal finances.
In addition, most health insurance plans cover preventive care costs, even if you have not met your deductible. Telehealth appointments may be a more affordable option to consider for routine care visits.
Here are some specific ways that preventative care can help you stay healthy in the long run:
The cost of a routine and preventative care visit will depend on whether you have health insurance coverage. If you have in-network insurance, the cost of an online visit with one of our doctors is typically just $30.
Most health plans often cover the cost of many routine preventive care services. To learn more, contact your health insurance provider.
Routine preventative care refers to medical services performed in order to prevent medical issues before they become serious conditions. Examples of routine care preventive services include yearly checkups and health screenings.
Preventative care services can potentially reduce healthcare costs as a result of finding potential health issues early, and beginning any needed care or treatment sooner. This can lead to lower healthcare costs in the long run, as early detection and diagnosis could prevent costly treatment for a more significant health issue or chronic disease down the line.
Preventive health is important since it helps to address potential health concerns before they develop into larger medical issues. Practicing preventative care can lead to better health outcomes and can contribute to a healthier life and extended lifespan.
Routine care (also called preventive care) is provided when you do not have symptoms of a specific illness and are being screened for potential health concerns. Diagnostic care is provided when a patient displays a specific risk factor or symptom and a physician seeks to provide a diagnosis in order to determine the next steps for care and treatment.
Most health plans often cover routine care or preventive care services. Diagnostic services usually have an associated copay, deductible or coinsurance; contact your health plan for more information.
