What is a Health Screening?
Health Screening is drawing blood to assess the good and bad cholesterol, having a blood pressure cuff wrapped around your arm to check for hypertension—these are examples of medical screening tests that have become a familiar part of a routine checkup.
Health screenings, however, are necessary in the early detection of many conditions, giving you a head start to combat any illnesses such as chronic diseases before complications set in.
The cost of going for a health screening in Singapore can vary widely depending on where you visit. Contrary to what most people think, doing a health screening in a public hospital might not necessarily be cheaper than at a private healthcare provider.
Health screenings in public hospitals are not subsidized. This is because you cannot get a referral from a polyclinic or A&E for health screening. As such, getting health screening done at a public hospital could still turn out to be more expensive than at a private clinic.
Prices for health screening packages in private hospitals also vary widely. As such, they might not be more expensive than at public hospitals. Health screenings at private hospitals tend to provide more exhaustive tests and screenings in their packages compared to those at public hospitals.
Due to the high level of competition among private clinics in Singapore, there is an even larger price variation.
Whether you are doing your health screening at a public hospital or a private clinic in Singapore, the trend is that the more tests a package has, the more expensive it will probably be.
Of course, you can still choose to get a more basic health screening package in Singapore, and then do separate screenings for individual illnesses.
Whether it is cancer or chronic illnesses like diabetes, early diagnosis can save you or your loved one’s life.
Benefits of Having a Regular Health Screening:
Early detection of diseases may result in better treatment and management, which reduces the risk of complications whilst increasing the chances of better health outcomes.
Health screening helps to identify if the patient is at risk of, or has a disease or condition, that was not previously known about.
help most specially to people who have a family history of chronic diseases like, cardiovascular disease, stroke or diabetes with the process of prevention and provide them with timely treatments.
For those under 30 years of age, health screening is recommended every two years. Despite this, for those individuals who are 30 years or older, a yearly health screening is highly recommended. For those over 50 years of age, more age-related screening tests are conducted.
Health Screening Test includes:
Cholesterol Test: The doctor will check a patient’s cholesterol level if the patient is obese, is a smoker or frequently drinks alcohol.
Blood Pressure Test: This is one of the most important tests conducted by the physician. If the blood pressure is high, further tests may be undertaken to determine the cause.
Mammograms, Osteoporosis and Pap Smear Test : This test are undertaken to prevent cervical cancers and breast cancers, as well as other disorders that affect women.
Diabetes Test: The patient may be checked for diabetes if they have a family history, or they have high cholesterol and high blood pressure.
STDs: For those who are sexually active, especially where there is more than one sexual partner, screenings for STDs are highly recommended.
A health screening session will typically take between 30 minutes and half a day. This depends on how many tests the doctor needs to conduct. Other common tests include x-rays, blood tests, fecalysis and urinalysis.
Health Screening in Singapore typically includes the following test:
- ECG
- Lung/Chest X-ray
- Abdomen Examination
- Neurological Test
- Extensive urine and blood investigations
- Medical report and review
Costs of Health Screening in Singapore:
- Fullerton Health – from $500.76
- Raffles medical – from $74.90.
- Mount Alvernia – from $131.60.
- Central clinic costs – from $48.

At present, Medisave cannot be used for other health screening such as screening for diabetes or high cholesterol.
However, if you are diagnosed with a chronic condition covered under the Chronic Disease Management Programme (CDMP), Medisave may be used to pay for part of the outpatient treatment cost of these diseases.
Women aged 50 and above can use their own or immediate family member’s Medisave for their screening mammograms at approved mammogram centres. Under the Medisave 400 scheme, up to $400 per Medisave account a year can be used for screening mammograms.
