From now until the end of the month, Malaysians are able to get free health checkups at Alpro Pharmacy outlets nationwide

This includes tests for blood cholesterol, blood pressure, and blood glucose, as well as calculations of Body Mass Index (BMI).

To claim the free health screening, just walk into any Alpro Pharmacy outlet and speak to their staff.

These free health checks are being offered by AIA Malaysia, as part of their ongoing efforts to help Malaysians stay healthy

The initiative is part of the insurer's #LiveWithVitality campaign, which aims to raise awareness on the importance of regular health screenings to enable 'Healthier, Longer, Better Lives'.

With the rise of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and critical illnesses (CI) in Malaysia, AIA wants to encourage more Malaysians to practise prevention methods and seek early diagnosis for a better quality of life.

AIA Vitality members are also able to get free basic health checks at participating Guardian pharmacies nationwide

Upon completion of the free health check, AIA Vitality members will earn points to unlock more rewards. As an added incentive, members who make an appointment and complete this health check before 31 May will also receive a RM10 voucher.

"Instead of only seeing the doctor when something is amiss, we want to raise awareness on the importance of periodic health checks in preventing late-stage NCD and CI diagnoses," said Heng Zee Wang, Chief Marketing Officer of AIA Bhd

"As Malaysia inches towards becoming an ageing nation, health screenings are vital for early detection and diagnosis, which then leads to better prognosis and recovery. We hope that with this initiative, we are able to make health screenings more accessible to Malaysians from all walks of life for improved public health," he added.

Kickstart your journey to better health with a free health check before 31 May.
