Community Screening

Many chronic diseases often go undetected in their early stages with no symptoms and you still feel completely well. Regular screening can help you detect these chronic diseases earlier before they progress, reducing the complications of the chronic disease and easing your downstream financial strain. Finding out your medical condition earlier allows for more timely intervention, either medically or by changing to a healthy lifestyle. Get yourself screened even if you feel healthy!

The screening covers:

  • Diabetes
  • Hypertension
  • High cholesterol
  • Obesity

Frequently Asked Questions

Who can join?

To be eligible, you must

  • Be a Singaporean aged 40 years old and above
  • Have no known chronic disease at the time of screening
  • Have not done health screening in the last 3 years

Do I have to pay?

  • Pioneer Generation - $0
  • Merdeka Generation/Blue CHAS/Orange CHAS - $2
  • Green CHAS/No CHAS - $5

How do I register my interest?

For any enquiries, please contact us at 9171 3681.

Functional Screening

Our eyes, ears and mouth are responsible for some of the most important functions in our daily life. As we age, some of these functions will start to decline. Safeguarding our vision, hearing and oral health is, therefore, essential to our quality of life.

Early detection of functional decline with appropriate treatment and lifestyle changes, will enable us to remain independent and active.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who can join?

To be eligible, you must be a Singaporean aged 60 years old and above. 

Do I have to pay?

For first level functional screening:

  • Pioneer Generation - $0
