Health screening is the first step for you to safeguard your health and proactively identify potential health issues.
A one-off screening will only pick up health conditions that are present at the time of screening.
Regular screenings allow early detection and appropriate intervention, which will prevent or delay the onset of certain diseases, as well as complications related to them.

Knowing your family medical history and risk factors helps to determine what type of medical tests you should go for. Please consult our clinic staff for assistance in determining the most suitable packages for you.

Pre-health screening
Fasting is required for your health screening (non-fasting health screening packages are also available). No food and beverages for at least 8 hours prior to your appointment, and please take plain water only.

For individuals on medication
You may take your medications (including those for blood pressure and blood thinning) before your health screening. For diabetic patients, please delay your routine morning medication until your blood sample is taken.
However, for some unique tests, you are advised to take medications at recommended timing. Kindly check with clinic staff if you have any doubts.

For individuals on supplements
You do not need to stop taking health supplements prior to health screening. Most health supplements do not affect blood tests results when taken on the same day.

For female
It is advisable to do the urine and stool test five (5) days after the last day of the menstruation cycle.
The ideal time to have a Pap Smear done is at least five days following the last day of your menstrual period.

Currently, MediSave cannot be used for all health screenings. However, eligible Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents (PRs) can enroll in the national screening programme (Healthier Sg | Screen for Life) which provides subsidized screenings recommended based on age and gender.
While MediSave cannot cover general health screening expenses, for individuals diagnosed with a chronic condition covered under the Chronic Disease Management Programme (CDMP), MediSave may be used to pay for part of the outpatient treatment cost of these diseases.
