Turning 65? Learn What Few Know About Their Medicare Options

07/12/2023

Did you know that some Medicare Advantage plans allow individuals to see high-quality preventive primary care doctors who specialize in older adults, such as IntuneHealth? As you consider ways to help maintain your health and prevent health conditions as you age, we are experts who can help you reach your health goals.

IntuneHealth is a primary care group of doctors who practice Value-based Care (VBC). VBC is a kind of preventive care that sees you more often to detect things before they become more serious and help prevent health care conditions from developing in the first place.

Below, learn more about what to expect from a value-based care provider and tips to help you find the best doctor for your needs.

What Is Value-Based Care?

Some Medicare Advantage plans offer access to specialized, preventive primary care doctors who specialize in caring for people 65+. As you age, things can change quickly. This type of care uses advanced technology to help you stay on top of your health and identify problems before they develop. Not only does this mean a happier, healthier life, but it also means fewer unnecessary doctor visits, procedures, and medical bills.

Picking the Right Doctor for Your Healthcare Needs

Wondering what to look for in a value-based care provider? Below, consider some factors to help you select the right doctor for your healthcare needs, and take our quiz to see how your current doctor stacks up.

Stronger Doctor-Patient Relationships

When choosing the right doctor, it's important that you have a doctor who will take the time to truly listen to your concerns, get to know you personally, and not rush you or second-guess what you’re experiencing. Our doctors spend more time with their patients because they truly care and know that having a close relationship with you can help improve the overall care they provide. As an IntuneHealth patient, you can chat with your doctor and health team 24/7 through our app, and your primary care doctor will give you their phone number to reach them directly as needed. So, whether you’re at dinner, at the beach, or golfing and have a health concern, your doctor and care team is only a phone call or chat away.

Convenience

We know that finding access to great care in a timely manner can be very frustrating. That’s why we offer same-day, walk-in, online, and in-home appointments. All of these are available to our IntuneHealth patients at no extra cost beyond your Medicare Advantage plan. 

Coordinating Care with Specialists

For individuals managing chronic health conditions seeing several specialists can be time-consuming. At IntuneHealth, your primary care provider oversees and coordinates all of your care with all of your specialists, which can reduce additional trips to your specialists, keep your specialists and your IntuneHealth doctor informed of your care and medications, and can help reduce unnecessary tests, medicines, and improve your overall health.

Take Advantage of Medicare Advantage with IntuneHealth

As you age, things can change quickly. Choosing a Medicare Advantage plan that allows you to see an IntuneHealth primary care doctor can help you stay healthier, happier, and able to do the things you love.
