Relevant Population Characteristics for Routine Medical Care Visits

Relevant Population Characteristics

In 2016, among adults, women (65.2%) had a higher age-adjusted rate of having a routine check-up in the past 12 months than men (59.3%). This is a result presumably because of childbearing and other reproductive health-related issues. Older Utahns aged 65 and over, who are at greater risk for a chronic medical condition, were more likely to report a routine check-up (82.9% in 2016) than were younger adults.
