New: Member Webpage for Osteoporosis Screenings

To encourage members to get all the screenings they need, the Health Plan of San Mateo (HPSM) has created a new member webpage with information and recommendations for Osteoporosis Screening. This webpage includes information on:   

  • What osteoporosis is
  • How to screen for osteoporosis
  • Who should receive osteoporosis screening
  • How to improve bone health and reduce risk of fracture. 

You can assist HPSM members if they have questions about osteoporosis screening and prevention by referring them to this page.

If you or any HPSM members have questions about programs, services and resources to support bone health, contact our Health Promotion Unit by phone (650-616-2165) or email
