Executive Proactive Health Assessment

You have the option to include an Executive Health Assessment in your Global Medical Care plan.

Pairing an Executive Health Assessment with Global Medical Care is a particularly powerful combination for health - enabling you to proactively identify issues and risk factors early, and then get treated immediately at the best available facilities by the best available specialists in their given field.

Inclusion of the Executive Health Assessment gives you access to a local private medical clinic of your choosing (within network), such as Telus Health (formerly Copeman Clinic), Medcan, Cleveland Clinic, InLiv.

Executive health assessments are completed annually in-clinic by a dedicated team, are in-depth (often over~3 hours) and provide you with a detailed report and action plan.
