UAE's National Health Insurance Company, Daman has added three new programmes to its health support services.

The programmes include support for colorectal and cervical cancers and rheumatoid arthritis, said a statement.
 
Daman’s health support director, Dr Alfons Grabosch said: “We understand that patients need more support than mere medication. The addition of three new programmes means we are now able to provide professional counsel on six life-changing diseases.”

Daman members joining any health support programme are assigned a personal coordinator who provides regular support in coordination with the treating physician. The coordination allows members to be more involved and aware of their condition and treatment plan, said the statement.

Along with the new colorectal cancer management programme, Daman is now including coverage for colorectal cancer screening in all Enhanced plans. The annual screening is offered to members over 50 years of age, it said. – TradeArabia News Service
