My mother had one of these assessments done.


She has a medicare advantage plan thru a reputable insurer. She was contacted by mail about the assessment visit and then called to set it up. She was visited by an RN who identified herself representing her insurance company with credentials. She took her vitals and looked in her eyes, nose and throat followed by a few general health questions and about her prescriptions. She left and gave her a business card and told her to call if she had any questions related to her health. The visit took about 30 minutes. My mother didn't mind the visit at all. I can see the benefit of these kinds of visits with Seniors that live alone and may be ignoring health issues.

That being said Will, I would definitely call your insurance company to make sure this is legit, especially since you and your wife are too young for this kind of visit.
