Yes. Preventive care and screenings are covered under both university-sponsored health plans through Medical Mutual. Prevention is the first and most important part of maintaining good health and an essential part of health and wellness benefits at Kent State.
Your Kent State Medical Mutual plan provides preventive care at no cost to you, including annual well visits with your doctor and cholesterol, diabetes, and hypertension screenings. Medical Mutual also offers a discount for weight management programs through Weight Watchers, as well as help with tobacco cessation. To learn more about your health plan, visit Medical Mutual. Once there, select Login then Member.
Along with encouraging and covering preventive screenings through your Medical Mutual coverage, Kent State university has also partnered with Livongo to provide a comprehensive chronic condition management program for diabetes, pre-diabetes, and hypertension.
