TRICARE covers many preventive health screenings to help women stay healthy. Preventive screening is not just the gynecology exams and mammograms, but includes screening for blood pressure, bone density, cholesterol and diabetes. Check with your provider to see if you have had the recommended screening tests.

Also, with the new food labeling and food pyramid you have more information to ensure your diet (and that of your family) provides you with the vitamins, nutrients and energy to be your best.
