At 67 you should be on medicare with no cost for physicals.
I am on medicare and also have supplemental through AARP
but they do not seem to cover a routine physical.
If I state something specific, then it will be covered.
It is called a "wellness" exam. Covered once a year

I have AARP UHC and I get my physical from my PCP for the co pay. ($15
on my plan)
The house call is not really a physical. They send a nurse/tech sort
of person to do a few rudimentary things. There is no real lab work
and it is not a doctor's opinion. They guessed wrong on a couple of
things the last time they sent someone here.
