Dr. Steven Alcuri

Hi there to all.

It’s been a long time since I placed a post here. My apologies.......

Today, I want to talk about Well Care for the older kids and teens.

There is something about the baby and toddler years that helps parents keep a high level of awareness about Well Care and immunizations. For the most part we see you like clockwork during these years, and you are all to be congratulated for doing such a good job.

Once children reach the grade school years, and then the ‘tween" years, and then the teens, awareness of the need for Well Care seems to fall off.

We all want good and proper health care for our children; but events happen, problems happen, life happens, and our good intentions get caught up in other things. When Covid happened, it threw all of us off our rails, and in some ways we still haven’t recovered. When the older kids and teens are just going along well, moving smoothly from one year to the next, Well Care just doesn’t feel to be as high a priority as it was when they were little. All of these things are very understandable, and we should forgive ourselves for them…but not let them slide.

Pediatric and adolescent medicine is now largely a preventive discipline, and one of the ways we keep it that way is regular well care. It is no less important in the older years.

In this economy, I could see how many of you would have concerns about costs. Under the Affordable Health Care Act, health insurance plans are required to cover preventive services – that includes well care and immunizations – without copay, coinsurance or deductible. Well Care and immunizations should cost you nothing out of pocket. Even if you have a high deductible plan the deductible should not apply here.

If you are not sure where you stand with Well Care and immunizations, pleas call us. We can easily look in your records and tell you what is needed and when.

So please, let us hear from you. All ages are important to us, and your KIDDOS are too important to let fall through the cracks.
