In response to the evolving health landscape in Singapore, Doctor Anywhere (DA) and Prudential Singapore have taken a groundbreaking step towards promoting preventive healthcare among the population. The growing challenges faced by Singaporeans in managing their health, including time constraints, escalating healthcare costs, and the apprehension of uncovering potential illnesses, have led to approximately 60% of individuals skipping essential health screenings.
In a bid to address these barriers, the alliance between Doctor Anywhere and Prudential Singapore has been unveiled, marking a pivotal moment in enhancing accessibility and uptake of preventive healthcare services. This collaboration is designed to offer greater convenience and affordability for customers enrolled in Prudential’s Integrated Shield Plan, PRUShield, which extends comprehensive medical coverage.
Under this partnership, Doctor Anywhere will deliver a spectrum of home-based healthcare services tailored to the specific needs of PRUShield members. These services encompass a range of vital healthcare provisions, from fully subsidised vaccinations for children and seniors, including Flu and Pneumococcal Vaccinations listed under the national immunisation schedule, to health screenings starting at an affordable $68, along with Flu and Travel Vaccinations from as low as $30. Importantly, these services will be administered by DA’s team of nurses and doctors within the comfort of one’s home, ensuring a seamless and convenient healthcare experience.
The innovative home-based services introduced through this collaboration offer an invaluable saving of time and unparalleled convenience, catering particularly to the needs of individuals leading fast-paced lives. This initiative instills a sense of assurance, granting individuals the peace of mind that they and their dependents are well-protected against potential health risks. The emphasis on early detection and intervention stands as a crucial strategy in mitigating the likelihood of severe health complications arising from undiagnosed illnesses.
