Regular health screenings are a cornerstone of preventive healthcare, enabling early detection and management of potential health issues before they escalate into serious conditions. Health screening packages offer a structured approach to assess various aspects of an individual’s health, tailored to specific needs and risk factors.

What Are Health Screening Packages?

Health screening packages are comprehensive sets of medical tests and examinations designed to evaluate an individual’s overall health status. These packages typically include assessments of vital organ functions, blood profiles, and screenings for common diseases. They are curated to detect early signs of health issues, allowing for timely intervention and management.

Why Are Health Screening Packages Important?

Early Detection of Diseases

Screenings can identify conditions like hypertension, diabetes, and high cholesterol before symptoms manifest, facilitating early treatment and better outcomes.

Personalized Health Assessment

Packages can be tailored to individual risk factors such as age, gender, family history, and lifestyle, providing a customized health evaluation.

Cost-Effective Healthcare

Detecting and managing health issues early can reduce the need for more extensive and expensive treatments in the future.

Peace of Mind

Regular screenings provide reassurance about one's health status and encourage proactive health management.

When Should One Consider Health Screening Packages?

Age Milestones

Certain screenings are recommended at specific ages; for example, cholesterol checks often start at age 20 and colon cancer screenings at age 50.

Family History

Individuals with a family history of certain diseases may need earlier or more frequent screenings.

Lifestyle Factors

Those with risk factors such as smoking, obesity, or a sedentary lifestyle should consider regular screenings.

Pre-Employment or Insurance Requirements

Some employers or insurance policies may require health screenings.

Who Should Opt for Health Screening Packages?

Adults Over 18

Regular screenings are beneficial for all adults to monitor and maintain health.

Individuals with Chronic Conditions

Regular monitoring helps manage existing health issues effectively.

Those with High-Risk Lifestyles

Individuals with high-stress levels, poor diet, or lack of exercise can benefit from regular assessments.

  • You may decide on the Health screening package or tests on the day of screening after consulting our doctor and reviewing your health records and test requirement, as testing does not follow the adage “the more the merrier”. Health screening comes with risk of anxiety from false positive results and may even cause harm if more invasive tests are required following the initial false positive result. We also try to avoid duplicate tests if they are done recently at other institutions. 
  • Fasting is NOT a requirement for most tests in the health screening, except for Fasting Glucose for diabetes, which requires at least 6 hours of fasting. All our packages employ the non-fasting HbA1c test for diabetes if you do not wish to fast. If unsure, you may come fasted for at least 6 hours for the health screening. 
  • Do not omit essential chronic medications, take your regular medications with plain water. 
  • We offer health screening to be done in the comfort of your own home for our Love, Joy and Peace packages, you may refer to our Home-based Health Screening page for more details.
  • For Love, Joy, Peace PRIME packages, a visit to our clinic is required for the Physical Examination and ECG, while imaging such as Chest X-ray, Ultrasound and CT calcium score/ CT lung are performed at our partner Radiology centres at Biopolis (One North MRT station) or various locations in Orchard depending on your preference. 
  • Health screening is never one-size-fits-all and best customized to suit your needs after a complimentary pre-Health Screening consultation with our doctor. Post-Health Screening review of your results is the most important part of health screening and is therefore complimentary and strongly encouraged.
  • Recommended cancer screening includes mammogram and cervical Pap and/or HPV test for women, Stool Occult Blood for colon cancer, 6-monthly AFP and annual Ultrasound Liver for Hepatitis B or C carrier, PSA tumour marker for high-risk males. Routine use of cancer markers are not recommended due to high false-positive rates. 
  • For highly-accurate Cancer testing and screening, our clinic now offers the Multi-Cancer Early Detection testing (MCED) – LucenceINSIGHT for 12 cancer types and LucenceINSIGHT PLUS for 50 cancer types with a sensitivity of 80.9%,  meaning there is an 80.9% probability of detecting if the cancer is present, and a specificity of 99%, which means if a cancer type is detected, there is 99% probability that the cancer is not a false-positive. 

Health Screening FAQs

Unlike common illnesses such as acute respiratory infections or gastroenteritis, chronic diseases such as Hypertension, Dyslipidemia and Diabetes may not cause symptoms in the early stages. Symptoms may only surface if the disease becomes more severe, or when there are complications of the chronic disease, which is the worse-case scenario! Therefore the primary goal of health screening is to detect chronic disease in its early stage, or even in it’s pre-stage (i.e. reversible stage), so as to ensure timely lifestyle or pharmacological interventions to minimize complications in the long-term. 

In other words, chronic diseases are also known as “silent killers” and it’s paramount to get yourself screened regularly even when you feel perfectly healthy!

Health screening is as simple as taking your own blood pressure readings at home with a reliable machine and maintaining a BP diary to review with the doctor, or taking your height and weight and calculating your BMI. 

For our packages, our basic Love package is designed with all the necessary tests for an average-risk individual.

Additional tests are recommended only after our doctor has reviewed your age, medical history, lifestyle, family history, before making an informed and shared decision with you, so that you know exactly what each test entails. 

Mental preparation is important – keep an open mind and have a frank discussion with our doctor regarding your lifestyle and health goals.

Do bring along your past medical reports especially if they have been done in private. Our clinic can also access your National Electronic Health Record (NEHR) to gather your past medical information so as to make recommendations. 

Fasting is generally not required nowadays, but if it is not too great an inconvenience, you may fast for at least 6 hours before screening. You may still take your essential regular medications with plain water.

If you are feeling unwell, it’s best to postpone the health screening until you are better.

We would reconcile your test results either through the National Electronics Health Records (NEHR) if uploaded or you may email or bring the reports on the day of screening. Repeat testing within a short interval is not necessary, therefore the doctor will advise on the appropriate tests and customize a package for you. 

Our health screening packages are priced affordably, from as low as $85 (nett price) for the Love package, which is a comprehensive-enough screen for most people which can be repeated 6-monthly to annually. You may also choose to add-on additional test and/or imaging if you require them, or after the initial consultation with our doctor. All prices for the packages and add-on tests/imaging studies are available on our website. Do note that review of health screening results with our doctor is also complimentary and highly encouraged – in fact, the review is the most important step of health screening so that you know what actions to take for better health.

Health screening is basically “screening” for any early disease in the absence of symptoms (i.e. when you feel completely well), as some diseases may not have symptoms in its early stages. It is therefore performed periodically (usually 6monthly to annually), based on your risk factors or personal medical history.

If you do experience any bodily symptoms or discomfort, be sure to inform our doctor during the health screening so that our doctor can perform targeted physical examination, recommend specific tests and/or imaging studies to make a diagnosis based on your symptoms and test results, or to rule out pertinent serious medical conditions.  

 

Health screening can pick up certain medical conditions such as high cholesterol which is completely asymptomatic (i.e. you feel completely well even if your cholesterol is running high).

Early detection of diseases (for example high cholesterol) ensures that the cholesterol levels are treated so as to reduce your 10-year risk of cardiovascular complications (i.e. heart attack and stroke risk). 

Health screening can also be done to ensure you have the right hormonal balance, and nutritionally replete, and therefore can contribute to even better health!  

Through health screening, our doctor will also share health and lifestyle tips in the long run to increase your number of years in good health, also known as ‘healthy longevity’.

An important aspect of Health screening includes a comprehensive review of your vaccination records and checking if you have immunity to certain viral diseases, as part of primary prevention of infectious diseases.

The 3 main diseases contributing to cardiovascular risk (i.e. risk of stroke and heart attack) are known as “DHL” – Diabetes, Hypertension, Lipid disorders “cholesterol”. 

These diseases do not cause symptoms in its early or even more developed stages of the diseases, until complications emerge. 

Another disease which may benefit from early detection would be age-appropriate cancer screening, and our new Lucence multi-cancer early detection blood test. You may refer to our webpage on LucenceINSIGHT cancer screening.Â
