GENERAL (Standard) CHECK UP

Each basic health check-up package involves:

1. A chest x-ray for lung and heart examination
2. Electrocardiography (ECG) to detect the heart conditions
3. A cholesterol test to identify the risk of cardiovascular diseases developing
4. A blood sugar (glucose) test for diabetes detection
5. Liver screening to determine the risk of cirrhosis or hepatitis developing
6. Kidney examination for renal failure detection
7. A consultation with a general practitioner who analyses the results of diagnostic procedures and identifies risks for your health.

Basic health check-up packages may vary in different medical centers. The basic examination program can be supplemented with some additional tests.

Basic health screening packages are developed for healthy people. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends undergoing a basic check-up program once a year for:

• health status evaluation and identification of the risks of potential diseases in the future
• confirmation or denying the patient's health complaints (if any)
• prevention of inherited diseases (diabetes, oncology, neurological disorders, etc.).

Asian (India, Thailand) and Eastern countries (Turkey, the UAE) provide the cheapest basic health check-up packages. The cost of the body examination in these states is 2-3 times lower than in European countries, the USA, or Israel due to the average price policy and a living wage.

However, it's possible to find affordable basic health screening packages in European countries such as Lithuania or Poland. Concerning the local citizens' income in these states, the price of basic health check-up packages is 2 times lower than in Germany, Spain or Italy.
