Jim Near, Ranjan Das, James Cantalupo. What do these names have in common? They were CEOs of high-profile companies worldwide. Tragically, they all passed away too early due to a disease that is still far too common among CEOs and board members – coronary heart disease. Many HR departments recognise the importance of health and do their best to take care of their employees on all levels of seniority. But are the current health assessments on the market proving effective when it comes to early detection? Statistically, not.
Pioneers of prevention
Current products/services available don’t adequately highlight the importance and benefits of preventive health assessments. It’s easier to prevent illness before it can establish fully.
The tremendous advances in medical imaging technology over the last 50 years now enable doctors to see inside the body in startling detail and enables the detection of the very earliest signs of disease which offers the most definitive opportunity in preventive health screening. Early detection is the main goal of Echelon Health.
The key to effective early detection is using the right modality of scanner for the right area of concern in the body. A combination of comprehensive blood tests checking hormone levels, cancer markers, vitamin levels (and more), combined with the best imaging technology through MRI, CT and ultrasound scanners and years of experience from specialists in their fields will guarantee a fully comprehensive picture of health, and potentially avoid serious illnesses down the line; this is what Echelon Health’s Health Assessments entail.
Prevention will be the future of healthcare and it’s important that companies lead from the front when it comes to preventative health for their employees. We are currently in a unique position to have a strong, genuine impact on our employees’ lives, by working on sourcing and offering the best health assessment programmes available today.
