Getting the most from my physician contact

 

In preparation for seeing his physician, Mr. G’s family completes a Health Risk Assessment and reviews the personalized recommendations for early detection, immunization, and prophylaxis. They establish goals for the visit and share ahead of the visit with family and relevant providers.

Mr. G’s son completes and prints out the  Physician Visit Form which includes up to date information about Mr. G’s functioning, the medications he takes and a detailed record of treatments that he has gotten from other physicians. With all this information in place, Mr. G's family becomes a partner in the health care visit. They are able to discuss his treatment options and he receives the recommended screening and preventative services best suited for him.
