100 members of the Binh Tan Technology Motorbike Taxi Union (Binh Tri Dong ward, Ho Chi Minh City) were organized by the union in coordination with Quoc Anh General Hospital for free medical examinations on January 16.
Union members were examined in 5 specialties, blood sugar quantitative, total urine analysis, total peripheral blood cell analysis, blood tests to assess liver function and detect liver damage due to disease (hepatitis, cirrhosis) and blood tests to detect damage in the liver and other organs (heart, muscles and bones). The total medical examination value for 100 union members is 63.9 million VND.
Mr. Le Tan Luu - Chairman of Binh Tan Technology Motorbike Taxi Union - said that because union members practice freely, many people are still in difficulty and do not have health insurance cards.
Therefore, the fact that union members are given free medical examinations will help them reduce some costs, and at the same time can detect the disease early (if any) for timely treatment.
