Early screening can save you big medical bills in future - and may even save your life
We all know how important it is to look after our health, but when it comes to forking out on expensive health-checks when there's nothing actually wrong. Well, it's easy to see why so many of us end up putting it off for another year or two. After all, with some preventive screenings going into the hundreds for a quick half-hour test, it's a lot of money to spend on a "just in case" cause, right? Wrong. That old excuse won't wash anyone, because there are actually low-cost health screens and test out there; you just need to know where to find them. Remember, many diseases can be treated successfully if detected early, but may cost you your life if detected too late.
