Updated List of Screening Tests Proposed by Deputy Aimagambetov
Suggests Proposing a New Illness for Routine Medical Examination
Hey there! Feeling a bit out of the loop? Well, buckle up! A deputy in the Mazhilis, Ashat Aimagambetov, is proposing an update to the screening schedule that's being buzzed about.
The main suggestion? Incorporating a screener for osteoporosis into the mix.
Aimagambetov's rationale? Osteoporosis might be hush-hush, but it's a silent menace that impacts millions of women over 50. Not just weak bones, but surgeries, rehabilitations, and yes, sometimes even dependence on helping hands. According to WHO, almost every third woman over 50 may experience a bone fracture due to osteoporosis.
Remember, countries such as Japan, South Korea, France, and Sweden have long incorporated osteoporosis screenings into their prevention systems. However, in Kazakhstan, it seems this topic is still on the margins.
Aimagambetov recently pitched this idea to the Ministry of Health, expressing hope for their support. He highlights, "We're not just thinking about our mothers, grandmothers, teachers, and doctors – the ones who've dedicated their lives to caring for others."
Speaking of declarations, in April, we reported that early oncological disease screenings will now be available under the ambit of free medical care. These guidelines are formally outlined in the law signed by Tokayev on April 25.
Moreover, several amendments focus on providing hearing aids to patients without disabilities.
Now, don't forget to tune into: Free screenings: when and which ones to undergo, explained by the Ministry of Health.

Did you know that around 15% of Kazakhstan's population suffers from osteoporosis, with nearly 80% being women? Guess who's pushing for changes to curb those numbers? None other than our very own deputy Aygambetov.

- The deputy, Ashat Aimagambetov, is advocating for the inclusion of osteoporosis screenings in the screening schedule, citing it as a significant concern affecting millions of women over 50.
- Remarkably, countries like Japan, South Korea, France, and Sweden have already incorporated osteoporosis screenings into their prevention systems.
- A imagambetov's proposal has sparked discussions about the need for geolocation-based Whatsapp notifications for free screenings, aiding in the convenience and accessibility of these health and wellness services.
- Science has shown that early detection and treatment of chronic diseases, including osteoporosis and mental health conditions, can greatly improve quality of life, especially for those dealing with aging-related medical conditions such as men's health or women's health issues.
- Skin care is another important aspect of health and wellness, and it's crucial to maintain proper routines, as our skin changes with age.
- As mental health becomes increasingly recognized as a vital part of overall health, it's crucial to prioritize policies that support mental health as much as physical health.
- Incorporating osteoporosis screenings into the existing healthcare system not only benefits individuals but also contributes to the reduction of chronic diseases and improves the quality of life in the community.
