Free Body Mass Index Screening

Presented by Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Rhode Island at Crossroads of Rhode Island, Providence RI

Sep 25 2018
Free Body Mass Index Screening

To help individuals better determine if they are leading a healthy lifestyle, Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Rhode Island (BCBSRI) is offering a free body mass index (BMI) screenings.

BMI is used as a screening tool to identify possible weight problems for adults. However, BMI is not a diagnostic tool. For example, a person may have a high BMI. However, to determine if excess weight is a health risk, a healthcare provider would need to perform further assessments. These assessments might include skinfold thickness measurements, evaluations of diet, physical activity, family history, and other appropriate health screenings.
