Medicare Annual Wellness Visits

Annual Wellness Visits are a key driver of success within the value-based care model. The Annual Wellness Visit (AWV) is a once a year comprehensive visit that allows the physician/NP/PA to focus on health conditions and preventive services with the patient and create a roadmap for achieving better health through stronger primary care relationships.
For practices just starting with Aledade, implementing a reliable process to provide timely, high quality AWVs for patients served is critical for future ACO success.
