Take Care of your Heart!

February is American Heart Month. Having a healthy heart is the best
Valentine's Day gift you could ever give yourself or the people who
love you.

Medicare will cover a cardiovascular screening at no cost to you every
5 years. The test are covered by Medicare Part B and will cover screening
tests for cholesterol, lipid, and triglyceride levels.

If you and your doctor discover that you are at risk for a heart attack
or stroke there are steps you can take to help prevent these conditions.
Lifestyle changes might help like increasing your activity level,
exercising and changing your diet to lower your cholesterol and stay healthy.

Talk to your doctor about resources and information on how to take care of
your heart and live a healthy life.   (Medicaregov.com)
