Healthy Kids/EPSDT
|
Healthy Kids is also known as
Early and Periodic Screening Diagnosis and Treatment (EPSDT). Healthy
Kids/EPSDT is a preventive health program for children and teens. With this
program, children and teens get regular checkups to make sure they get the
immunizations (vaccinations) and other preventative care they need to catch
any health problems at an early stage.
When should a Healthy Kids checkup be done?
The first check up should be as soon as possible after your children become eligible for medical coverage. Call your doctor to schedule a Healthy Kids appointment. |
