Where can seniors get checked in Madison?
The City of Madison lists free blood pressure screening for older adults at Madison Senior Center on first and third Tuesdays from 11:15 a.m. to noon, with Nov. 17, Dec.

How do the Loudoun mobile screenings work?
Inova Newsroom listed three November senior-center stops for Inova Loudoun Hospital Mobile Health: Leesburg Senior Center on Nov. 4, Cascades Senior Center on Nov. 10 and Ashburn Senior Center on Nov.
17, leaving Ashburn as the remaining November date after Nov. 10. The same notice asks readers to call the Mobile Health hotline at 703-858-8818, bring medications and follow up with a primary-care provider, as described in the November services notice.
A short call can confirm time and place before holiday travel. Bringing a medication list helps the screener and the follow-up provider see the full picture.
Does Medicare cover a blood pressure check?
Medicare.gov explains that Part B covers a yearly Wellness visit with routine blood pressure, height and weight checks plus prevention planning for people enrolled in Part B for over 12 months. The visit costs nothing when the provider accepts assignment, but added tests or services during the same visit can trigger coinsurance and deductible charges, per the yearly wellness coverage page. If a reader already sees a provider, carry the holiday reading to that visit.
Ask what is included before agreeing to extra tests during the same appointment.
