At the Will County Health Department we strive to keep women healthy by encouraging them to schedule their annual Well-Woman exams and Breast Cancer screenings.
A well-woman visit is a once-a-year check-up of your health, just for women, that is typically covered by your insurance. Will County can also perform Breast and Cervical Cancer screenings.
You can schedule a well-woman check-up or screening at our Community Health Center in Joliet.

A well-woman visit is a once-a-year check-up of your health, just for women, that is typically covered by your insurance. Illinois Medicaid covers many preventative services including your annual well-woman visit to your doctor.
Well-woman visits include a full checkup, separate from any other visit for sickness or injury. These visits focus on preventive care for women, which may include:
- Services, like vaccines (shots), that improve your health by preventing diseases and other health problems
- Preventative screening tests, which are medical tests to check for diseases early when they may be easier to treat
- Education and counseling to help you make informed health decisions.
- Clinical and behavioral interventions to help prevent or manage chronic diseases or risk factors
- Education and referrals for managing or treating mental health conditions
Well-Woman Exams can be scheduled at our Community Health Center in Joliet
