Vinh Long - People in difficult circumstances who do not have the conditions to participate in centralized examinations in An Hoi ward will be supported with free health check-ups right at home.

Notably, after centralized examinations, the ward continues to review vulnerable cases, those in difficult circumstances or those who do not have the conditions to participate to organize health check-ups and screenings at home. Thereby, limiting the situation of people missing the opportunity to have periodic health check-ups.

Mr. Bach Nhu Yen - Vice Chairman of An Hoi Ward People's Committee said that periodic health check-ups and screening are important in assessing health status, early identification of risk factors and proactive disease prevention.

When abnormal signs are detected, people are guided for examination, treatment and appropriate health management. This contributes to improving the effectiveness of primary health care, helping people proactively monitor and protect their health.

Through the 90-day and night campaign, An Hoi ward mobilized the involvement of the entire political system to review and update people's health information. This is also the basis for gradually forming and completing electronic health records.

The implementation of home examinations for difficult cases that do not have the conditions to participate in centralized campaigns contributes to expanding the coverage of the campaign, aiming at the goal of managing universal health and improving the quality of health care from the grassroots level.
