A friend of mine in Norway has annual checks. He just had an increased marker for prostate cancer and he was booked in within days for a full MRI and also booked in for a biopsy that would then be cancelled if not required. What an amazing service, all provided by the state! It does of course save money for the health service by catching cancer (and presumably other illnesses too) early.
What are the options to try to replicate this in the UK? I know there are various firms who offer annual checks. Any recommendations? If your tests show concerns do the NHS then act on the concerns?
