What is surgical clearance?

Surgical clearance (a preoperative evaluation) is a medical exam that checks whether you’re healthy enough for a planned surgery. A Health Express provider reviews your medical history and medications, examines you, and orders any testing your surgeon requires, such as lab work or an EKG, then sends the documentation to your surgical team.
