As part of the government's ongoing efforts to enhance healthcare accessibility, Aasandha, the nation's universal healthcare insurance scheme, has unveiled a specialized health insurance package tailored for individuals aged 35 and above.
Effective immediately, this new initiative aims to facilitate regular medical check-ups for citizens within this demographic, aligning with the government's comprehensive 14-week road map for national development.
The revamped Medical Checkup Package, initially introduced earlier this year, underwent modifications to address operational challenges encountered during its implementation phase. As part of these adjustments, the basic healthcare package for individuals above 19 years old has been revised to better cater to the specific needs of older demographics.
Under the updated scheme, individuals aged 35 and above will have access to comprehensive tests aimed at early cancer detection, with additional screenings available for those aged 40 and above. These tests, designed to identify potential health concerns at their nascent stages, are integral to ensuring timely intervention and effective management of medical conditions.
Moreover, the health insurance package guarantees annual medical assessments for enrolled individuals, encompassing a range of diagnostic tests beyond cancer screenings. Furthermore, should a physician recommend additional tests within a specified timeframe, Aasandha will facilitate the necessary arrangements for their completion under the scheme.
In a bid to streamline healthcare services for all demographics, Aasandha has also collaborated with government hospitals to provide specialized tests for school students in accordance with the guidelines set by the Ministry of Education. This concerted effort underscores the government's unwavering commitment to prioritizing public health and ensuring equitable access to essential healthcare services across the nation.
