Health Screening Definition - A screening test to detect potential diseases and/or medical conditions before the presence of symptoms. Health Screening tests are very important and can find diseases early, when they're easier and less expensive to treat.
The goal of a preventative screening is the early detection of an undiagnosed disease in individuals without symptoms or signs of any disease.
How often should I get a health screen?
With a couple of simple tests and physical examinations, you can detect the early onset of some serious medical conditions. Annual exams with your primary care physician, supplemented with regular health screenings, can help monitor any changes in your health.
As we age, having a record of some basic, vital statistics can help detect the onset of some medical conditions like heart disease, diabetes and high cholesterol. You health is important and Sam's Club provides resources to help you maintain a healthy lifestyle.
