This is especially important for older patients or individuals with risk factors such as family history, the use of certain medication, or other important factors such as smoking, lack of exercise, vitamin D deficiency or oestrogen deficiency.     <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-primary-color has-text-color has-link-color has-step-3-font-size wp-elements-2\">GOOD TO KNOW<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list is-style-arrow-list details\">\n<li><b><font color=\"#000000\" face=\"fira-sans, sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\">IS OSTEODENSITOMETRY COVERED BY STATUTORY HEALTH INSURANCE? <\/span><\/font><\/b><strong><span style=\"font-family: var(--wp--preset--font-family--body); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: var(--wp--custom--typography--body--font-size); font-weight: var(--wp--custom--typography--body--font-weight);\">If osteodensitometry is medically justified, the costs will be covered by your statutory health insurance.
