The "wellness visits" for children are definitely to administer and push vaccines on the kids. Worked so well for the kiddos that they now do the same for all the adults. No reason for annual wellness visits for any age.
Yes! Back when we had insurance and our boys were babies/toddlers, I would take them in regularly like youre 'supposed to'. Once the doc mentioned some eczema under one of their arms (happens often w them in winter, especially during a growth spurt) ad to put aquaphor on it. I knew that (tho i dont use aquaphor) but duh, moisturize. Get the bill for the wellness check and everything was covered EXCEPT for $75- a "consultation fee". Because she said use moisturizer on dry skin for a baby. Make it make sense.
My doc asked me if I wanted him to bring up vaxes anymore because I always say "no, thanks". I suspect either he's getting people upset that he's pushing them or he's afraid I'm going to spout the research, or both.
