Healthway Medical launches executive checkup package for elderly citizens

Healthway Medical, the Philippines’s most trusted and preferred network of mall-based clinics, recently introduced Pri­meCheQ, an executive checkup package tailored for senior citizens.

As people age, their im­mune system becomes slower to respond, which may cause them to become more suscep­tible to different chronic health conditions, such as obesity, os­teoporosis, respiratory problems, cardiovascular diseases, vision problems, diabetes, dementia, and cancer.

Healthway Medical pro­motes preventive healthcare and a proactive lifestyle among the elderly through making healthy choices, such as eating healthy, being active, and visiting the doctor regularly for checkups.

With PrimeCheQ’s com­plete diagnostics and compre­hensive physical evaluation, elderly patients are assured that every aspect of their health will be assessed.

The package includes labo­ratory tests, imaging procedures, eye screening, posture evalua­tion and other specialist con­sultations. It also has a geriatric screening, developed especially for older people, to evaluate their functional ability, as well as their physical, cognitive, mental and socioenvironmental circumstances. Examinations that detect cervical cancer among women (pap smear) and prostate cancer among men (prostate-specific antigen test) are also included.

Healthway Medical pro­motes excellent patient care experience and convenience to its PrimeCheQ customers. The results of the checkup is available within 24 hours after the completion of the tests.

According to Healthway Medical’s Vice President for Sales and Marketing Carmie de Leon, aside from being in line with the clinic’s long-standing commitment in cultivating preventive healthcare and giving people of all ages access to quality health and wellness, PrimeCheQ is Healthway Med­ical’s way of giving thanks to the elderly.

“The primary objective of PrimeCheQ is to pay tribute to our parents and grandparents for all the love and care they give us. This product aims to encourage them to continue embracing their life with confi­dence on health,” de Leon said.
