Establishing a trusting relationship with a primary care provider is key to personalized care. Over time, your care provider gets to know you as a person, which leads to better medical care.
When you build trust with your PCP, you’ll feel more comfortable discussing anything that is bothering you physically and emotionally. This is important as issues in any of these areas can affect your overall health.
One of the easiest ways to build a relationship with your care provider is to maintain a consistent care schedule. Both Cigna and Kaiser cover the cost of annual physicals, so be sure to get them on your calendar and attend any necessary follow-up appointments.
Cigna offers several health and wellness programs tailored to your specific health goals, including an Incentive Awards Program – earn cash for taking your health assessment! – lifestyle management programs to get personalized support from health coaches and pregnancy support.
Telehealth services through MDLive for Cigna give you access to virtual wellness screenings to assess your healthcare needs and partner with your care providers to develop personalized care plans:
Kaiser’s healthy lifestyle programs give you access to take actionable steps to help you reach your wellness goals, such as healthy eating, sleeping better, lowering stress, or other lifestyle changes. Start by taking a Total Health Assessment to assess where you are now and learn how to make small changes in your daily habits that will improve your overall health.
Kaiser members also have free access to the mental health and wellness apps Calm and myStrength, which provide programs for reducing anxiety, managing depression, mindfulness and meditation, and setting and tracking goals, all at your fingertips.
