In life company updates MLC Life Insurance has announced a new addition to its Vivo program, the Aware questionnaire by Osara Health.
The insurer says the two-minute questionnaire is designed to encourage cancer screening and “…empower individuals to take control of their health saving lives one screening at a time.”
It notes that one in two Australians are not meeting recommended cancer screening guidelines, and says MLC Life Insurance is committed to changing this statistic by giving access to the Aware questionnaire.
Andrew Beevors, Chief Claims Officer for MLC Life Insurance, says the insurer is always looking for ways to improve the customer experience and that it’s proud to deliver this extra support, complementing the Vivo program “…and helping bridge the gap between awareness and action when it comes to cancer screening.”
