Your healthcare provider will review your profile, including your medical history and any medication you take, and allow you to ask questions about health concerns you may have. To complete the check-up, the provider may also recommend laboratory tests to help detect irregularities that might indicate a larger problem. Blood test results would be shared with you online.<\/p>\r\n<h6>What happens if a follow-up is required?<\/h6>\r\n<p>If a follow-up is required to examine the results of your lab tests, you can schedule a visit with a healthcare provider on Maple to discuss your results further and get additional guidance such as preventative care.<\/p>\r\n<h6>When do I need a health assessment?<\/h6>\r\n<p>Regular health check-ups are recommended depending on your age and medical history. A health assessment can help keep you healthy by identifying risk factors such as smoking or obesity, in which case monitoring progress may be important.<\/p>\r\n<h6>What are some of the conditions I should be screened for?<\/h6>\r\n<p>Depending on your age, medical history, and lifestyle habits, your healthcare provider may screen you for various conditions, including:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>High blood pressure<\/li>\r\n<li>Cervical cancer<\/li>\r\n<li>High cholesterol for all adults starting at age 40, or at any age if there&#8217;s a family history or specific medical conditions<\/li>\r\n<li>Diabetes<\/li>\r\n<li>Breast cancer<\/li>\r\n<li>Colon cancer<\/li>\r\n<li>Osteoporosis (weakened bones)<\/li>\r\n<li>Abdominal aortic aneurysm (enlarged blood vessel)<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>Early detection can help your provider create the right treatment plan for you.<\/p>\r\n<h6>When and how often should I get health check-ups?<\/h6>\r\n<p>To stay on top of your health, it&#8217;s best to get regular health assessments. If you have previous health conditions, lab tests such as blood work are a good way to find out what&#8217;s going on with your health, and which types of preventative care or treatment you may need.<\/p>\r\n<h6>How do I get a general health check-up?<\/h6>\r\n<p>Maple makes getting a general health check-up easy. Simply open the app, click &#8220;Get care&#8221;, and choose &#8220;General Health Assessment&#8221;. Once you&#8217;ve booked an appointment, the healthcare provider will review your profile and you can ask questions about any health concerns. The provider may recommend lab tests, including blood work as part of your assessment.<\/p>\r\n<h6>Is having a health check-up a must?<\/h6>\r\n<p>Health check-ups are important so that you can stay on top of your health and discover risks before they become problematic. Early detection and treatment could save you from further health issues, so it&#8217;s best to get check-ups whenever you can.<\/p>\r\n<h6>What blood work should be done yearly?<\/h6>\r\n<p>The most common types of yearly blood work are complete blood count (CBC) and basic metabolic panel (BMP). However, if the healthcare provider feels there are other risk factors, they&#8217;ll request other lab tests from your blood work such as a liquid panel to test for cholesterol, thyroid panel to test thyroid function, and more.<\/p>\r\n<!--SCHEMA-->\r\n<h2>Book a comprehensive health check-up today<\/h2>\r\n<p>See a doctor online, get a complete health check-up, and get the answers you need to take action on your health.<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getmaple.ca\/onboarding\/get-started\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\"> Get a general health assessment <\/a> <img decoding=\"async\" title=\"ill_walk\" src=\"https:\/\/www.getmaple.ca\/site-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/ill_walk.png\" alt=\"Illustration of a woman carrying her grocery bags while contacting a doctor online using Maple\" \/><\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Book a general health assessment online to get a 360 view of your health For a comprehensive and preventive look at your health, schedule a virtual examination with a physician or nurse practitioner on Maple.
