Most chronic health conditions are treatable, curable, and less costly if they are detected and treated early. Oftentimes, there are no symptoms with early stages of cancer. By the time symptoms occur and insurance approves a scan, the cancer might have progressed to stage 3 or stage 4. Investing in your health is a proactive step towards a healthier and happier life. The worst thing you can do for your health is nothing!
