Assessment is a process for defining the nature of that problem, determining a diagnosis and developing specific treatment recommendations for addressing the problem or diagnosis.
What is screening in medical terms?
Medical screening is the systematic application of a test or inquiry, to identify individuals at sufficient risk of a specific disorder to benefit from further investigation or direct preventive action, among those who have not sought medical attention on account of symptoms of that disorder.
Does Medicare cover Screenings?
