Preventative care is a type of healthcare focusing on preventing the onset of diseases or identify disease as early as possible when treatment is most feasible. Preventative healthcare can include interventions such as vaccines, screening tests, or regular physical examinations. Effective preventative care will minimize damage caused by illnesses to an individual and can also limit costs associated with medical treatment.
