What is the Health Platform Benefit?
Early detection tests can help doctors find diseases early. The earlier a disease is found, the easier it is to treat and possibly reverse. Screening is one of the most important things you can do for your health. We encourage you to take care of your health and wellbeing by going for screening tests and keeping track of your health status at no extra cost to you.
