Flu vaccinations�Yearly�flu�vaccination�is�the�most�important�step�in�protecting�you�and�your�loved�ones�against�the�flu.�The�flu�vaccination�is�proven�to�prevent�flu�illnesses,�related�doctor�visits�and�missed�work/school�and�can�also�reduce�the�risk�of�hospitalization.
Coordinating care among doctors �Your�primary�care�provider�(PCP)�understands�all�your�health�concerns�and�how�they�relate�to�each�other.�Help�them�coordinate�your�care�by�giving�other�health�care�providers�permission�to�share�information�with�your�PCP�so�they�can�see�the�full�picture�of�your�health.
Lower back pain �X-ray’s,�CT�scans�and�MRIs�rarely�help�your�back�feel�better�faster.�Imaging�tests�can�also�lead�to�unnecessary�surgeries�and�treatments.�Applying�heat,�getting�a�massage,�and�gentle�exercise�like�walking�or�stretching�can�help.�Always�consult�your�doctor�about�imaging�decisions.
Antibiotics misuse �Using�antibiotics�when�they�aren’t�needed�can�do�more�harm�than�good—including�side�effects�like�rash,�diarrhea,�and�an�increased�risk�for�antibiotic-resistant�infections.�If�antibiotics�aren’t�appropriate,�your�doctor�can�recommend�other�therapies�to�help�you�get�relief.
