What is a health screening?

The goal of Goshen Health is to help our community be proactive with their health needs. One of the many ways we accomplish this is by offering a variety of health screenings throughout Elkhart County.

Screenings are tests that reveal the risk of developing health conditions, some of which are serious or life-threatening. They are also used to monitor an existing diagnosis. An important benefit of a health screening is that once you’re aware of your risk, you can then work with your provider to make lifestyle changes or get treatment.

If you would like to register for a health screening or would like more information, call (574) 364-2496. Please note that some screenings are free, while others have a small fee.
