Why Heart Health Screening Matters

Heart disease is one of the leading health concerns in Omaha, but screenings can detect risks early—often before symptoms appear. Regular heart health screening helps identify high blood pressure, cholesterol, and other risk factors so families can take preventive steps. Our providers offer screenings that are simple, effective, and personalized to your needs.

  • On-site labs for cholesterol and blood sugar

  • Blood pressure, weight, and metabolic checks

  • Risk assessment for heart attack and stroke

  • Family-focused screenings for adults and seniors

Common Questions About Heart Health Screening in Omaha

What does a heart health screening include?

Our screenings may include blood pressure checks, cholesterol and lipid panels, blood sugar testing, BMI evaluation, and a review of your family history.

At what age should I start heart health screenings?

We recommend most adults begin screenings in their 20s, with regular checks every 3–5 years. More frequent screenings are needed if risk factors like diabetes or high blood pressure are present.

Can screenings prevent heart disease?

Screenings themselves don’t prevent disease, but they detect risk factors early. By identifying problems sooner, you can make changes that significantly reduce your long-term risk.

Are screenings covered by insurance?

Yes. Most insurance plans cover preventive screenings, including cholesterol, blood sugar, and blood pressure checks. Our Omaha team verifies coverage before scheduling.

Do screenings replace regular checkups?

No. Screenings are part of preventive care, but regular checkups are still important for overall wellness. Our Omaha clinic helps families combine both for complete care.
