Abstract

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) adopted the Institute of Medicine's recommendation that eight preventive services for women, including at least one annual well-woman visit (WWV), be included in the defined list of preventive care services provided without cost sharing under the Affordable Care Act (ACA, Section 2713; Institute of Medicine, 2011). WWVs are a key feature of the ACA's prevention provision because they provide women with access to comprehensive, personalized, preventive services and a routine source of care for achieving health and wellness.
