PruHealth's philosophy is to promote a focus on health and wellbeing, encouraging people to be proactive about managing their health. The Diagnostic Clinic is pleased to support these initiatives.
PruHealth policyholders will be able to reduce the cost of their health insurance in a variety of ways, such as having regular health assessments, managing existing conditions, giving up smoking or taking more exercise.
The Diagnostic Clinic has developed health screens specifically for PruHealth policyholders, and these are offered at heavily subsidised prices.
Each screen will also earn the policyholder ‘Vitality points’, which will help them move up to higher tiers of PruHealth membership.
