November 21, 2012 – In the context of the campaign „Have
a health check-up, the state pays!” organized by the Ministry of Health and the
National Health Service, MFD Healthcare Group offers free of charge preventive
health check-ups, aimed at early detection and prevention of breast, cervical
and colon cancer.
Starting from 2009 there has been implemented cancer early detection program in
Latvia, which includes:
- Preventive check-up of the cervix (Pap smear) for women aged 25 - 70 years
once in three years, presenting the invitation letter of the National Health
Service;
- Preventive breast check-up (mammography) for women aged 50 - 69 years once in
two years, presenting the invitation letter of the National Health Service;
- Preventive check-up of the colon (home test) for men and women, starting from
50 every year, turning to your GP.
