There was a noticeable drop in preventative care visits to health care providers in 2020. To urge individuals to revisit their doctor and reclaim their health, Hutchinson Regional Healthcare System is joining other Kansas hospitals in the Catch Up on Care campaign.
The Catch Up on Care campaign is a response to the decline of annual health care visits in 2020. There is considerable concern this drop will lead to increased numbers of advanced or life-threatening illnesses. One such example is the nearly 25,000 Kansans who delayed cancer screenings last year.
“We saw a decline in preventative health care from data and anecdotal evidence. This is affecting children to adults by delaying timely immunizations, screenings for disease and management of chronic conditions.
