Women's Health Resources

Your HealthSelectSM medical plan includes a wide range of services to support your health at every stage of life.

Preventive care for women

HealthSelect covers most preventive care, including annual well-woman exams and preventive screenings like mammograms and colonoscopies, at additional no cost to you.

If you are enrolled in HealthSelect of Texas®, you must have a PCP on file with Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas (BCBSTX) to coordinate your care and make the most of your benefits. Learn more about choosing a PCP.

Speak with your PCP about screening recommended for women in your age group.

Additional Resources

Your plan includes care for mental health concerns like depression, anxiety and drug and alcohol issues, including mental health Virtual Visits through MDLIVE® and Doctor On Demand®.

  • Virtual Visits are covered at 100% if you are enrolled in HealthSelect of Texas, HealthSelectSM Out-of-State or HealthSelectSM Secondary
  • If you are enrolled in Consumer Directed HealthSelectSM, Virtual Visits are covered after you meet your deductible, with 20% coinsurance after that.
