After diagnosis, the care pathway aims to maintain long-term health through effective therapies and regular medical monitoring.
One of the most important tools in this pathway is clinical screening, which consists of a set of tests and check-ups that allow assessment of overall health, early detection of potential complications, and timely intervention.
Screening for certain health issues helps protect long-term health by enabling early intervention when necessary and selecting the most suitable therapies for each individual.
In particular, screening allows you to:
• Prevent avoidable complications
• Identify potential risk factors early and correct them
• Maintain a good quality of life over the long term
Your doctor may recommend tests to evaluate kidney function, bone health, glucose and lipid metabolism, and cardiovascular risk prevention. Any complications from co-infections, if present, will be monitored, and appropriate screenings will be proposed based on your clinical situation or age.
Screening accompanies a person over time, adapting to the different stages of life and care. Some checks are performed immediately after diagnosis, while others are repeated periodically or whenever therapy or health status changes.
Following a screening schedule allows care to be adjusted over time and enables intervention before any changes become clinically significant.
The most appropriate screening plan depends on your medical history, age, and individual needs.
For this reason, it is important to consult your doctor during scheduled visits, to define and update over time the most appropriate check-up program.

• Exemption card for pathology 020.042 or other valid exemption
⚠️ ATTENTION: If you do not have a health insurance card you will have to go with a valid identification document to the CUP for the issuance or renewal of theSTP/ENI and sign, if you meet the requirements, the certificate of indigence, which must be renewed every 6 months, like the STP/ENI. In this way you will be able to benefit from the X01 exemption. Afterwards, you will still have to go to your local ASL with the pathology certificate to obtain the pathology exemption.
