What is this appointment?

A Yearly Skin Exam is an in-clinic visit with a specially trained Tia primary care provider to check your skin from head to toe, spot any changes early, and support your long-term skin health.

Who should get a Yearly Skin Exam?

A Yearly Skin Exam is for anyone who wants to take care of their skin and catch changes early. Regular checks are one of the best ways to prevent skin cancer from going undetected. This visit may be especially important if you:

  • Have fair skin, freckles, or a history of sunburns or tanning
  • Notice new or changing moles, spots, or patches on your skin
  • Have a family history of basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma or precancerous growths
  • Spend a lot of time outdoors or have high sun exposure

Symptoms we care for:

During your Yearly Skin Exam, your provider will pay close attention to skin changes such as:

Your Yearly Skin Exam: What to Expect

Step 1

Arrive for your in-clinic exam with a Tia primary care provider (MD, NP, or PA).

Step 2

Get a thorough head-to-toe skin check - including scalp, face, neck, arms, chest, back, abdomen, legs, feet, and even between your toes. If your provider finds anything they want to get more information about, they may recommend a biopsy (sometimes done on the spot) or a referral to a dermatologist.

Step 3

Leave with personalized education on self-checks and skin protection. Plan to return yearly (or sooner if you notice new or changing spots).

Insurance and Pricing

Is this covered by insurance?

Tia will submit this visit to your insurance.

It’s important to know that many plans don’t treat yearly skin exams as preventive care unless you have a specific concern. When that happens, the visit is billed like a regular office visit — which may mean a copay or some out-of-pocket costs depending on your plan.

We recommend checking your specific benefits ahead of your visit.
