Be proactive with your health!

Preventive care helps you maintain your overall health and get ahead of any health issues. Routine checkups, immunizations, lab tests and health screenings may help you lower your risk for disease and they help your doctor diagnose and treat any health concerns early. 

As part of our mission to improve the health and lives of the people in the communities we serve, we want to help Health New England members practice good preventive care in order to maintain their health. Below are a few of the preventive care resources available right now.

To maintain good health, the CDC recommends checking your blood pressure on a regular basis. Blood pressure is a measurement of the amount of pressure in your blood vessels (mm Hg). Keep track of your blood pressure by participating in this challenge. Follow the instructions in the PDF below and track your results using the Tracking Form.
