Brief Introduction
The National Health Screening Programme (NHSP) is a nationwide health screening initiative organised by the Ministry of Health of Brunei Darussalam in 2019. The programme offers Brunei citizens and permanent residents in at-risk age group screening tests for cardiovascular risk factors and selected cancers namely colorectal, breast, and cervical cancers, based on scientific recommendations.
The main aims are to:
Prevent or detect early signs of noncommunicable diseases such as high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, and cancer
Prevent or detect early complications caused by noncommunicable diseases
Reduce the rate of premature deaths due to noncommunicable diseases
