Free House Call to Evaluate Your Health

Say yes to a free MVP-Matrix Medical home visit, an important part of your membership and the chance to discuss your health in detail in the comfort of your own home. A nurse practitioner will make a house call to evaluate your current health situation. Studies show that MVP members who take advantage of these home visits: 

  • Have lower medical expenses 
  • Have fewer hospital admissions 
  • Feel more informed and in charge of their health 
  • Are more satisfied with their health plan 

We’ll share the information you discuss during the visit with your doctor. Working together, we can help you take steps now to prevent health issues later. 


Free Medication Review Program

Connect with an MVP pharmacist over the phone to review all your medications at a convenient time for you. 

The pharmacist can: 

  • Help you understand the prescriptions you take and the best time of day to take each one 
  • Check for possible harmful interactions between your medications 
  • Discuss lower-cost alternatives and if they are available and appropriate for you
