A member asked:
Im turning 41 this year and understand that prostate examinations are covered even by my basic discovery policy. what is covered & can i book aptmnt?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Prostate exams: Please call the number which is probably on the back of your insurance card and ask the insurance people. Also, understand that symptoms, PSA, and digital rectal exam combo yields the best diagnosis. If anything suspicious is found seek a second opinion to avoid unnecessary surgery. Peace and good health.
