13. What I need?
• “One size fit all”.

14. What I need?
• No standard packages recommended
• Vary depending on your age, gender and various other
factors pertaining to your lifestyle.
• How often do you need these checkups? This, too, will
be determined by several factors, including age and
previous medical history.
• And if the tests reveal any cause for concern, then
the diagnostic center should be able to provide the
needed counseling.

15. What I need?
• Unfortunately, we have a tendency to trust packages that include more
tests. However, a longer list of exams doesn’t automatically mean that
you are getting better services.
• In most developed countries, the guidelines for annual checkups are set
on a national level.
• Till the time that such guidelines are set, some firms are offering X-
Rays and even CT Scans as part of the checkups. This is worrying
because these types of tests use ionizing radiation, which could actually
cause harm rather than help the consumer and should only be undertaken
when one’s health status calls for them.
• Even the Pap Smear and Mammogram should be recommended only for
women of a particular age group and at a given frequency
