Health check at home
A fuller check-up done at home: blood tests, a urine test, blood pressure, weight, and a vision and hearing check, to catch problems early.
Who it's for
- A yearly check for a parent who doesn't go to the doctor
- A starting point before arranging regular care
What happens
- A provider visits to carry out the checks and take samples.
- The results come back in the provider's visit report, in your account.
- You can request follow-up care from there.
What the quote depends on
- Which checks are included
- Where your relative lives
You request the service first. Once a provider is matched, you see their price, or a fee they've quoted, and nothing is charged until you accept it and pay.
How payment works
- Your payment is held by Welbridg, not passed to the provider, until you confirm the visit happened or 24 hours after the provider marks it delivered.
- If something goes wrong, report it within those 24 hours and the payment stays on hold while Welbridg reviews it. Welbridg can release it, refund it or split it.
- Cancel before a visit is scheduled, or more than 24 hours before it, for a full refund. Cancel later than that and 20% of that visit's price goes to the provider. If the provider cancels, you get a full refund.
Questions families ask
- How often should an older parent have a health check?
- Many families arrange one a year, and more often for someone with a long-term condition. A doctor can advise on what is right for your relative.
- How much does it cost?
- Prices depend on the provider, where your relative lives and what they need, so Welbridg doesn't list fixed prices. You request the service first. Once a provider is matched, you see their price, or a fee they've quoted, and nothing is charged until you accept it and pay.
- Who are the providers?
- Only providers Welbridg has verified can see and take a family's request. To be verified, a provider uploads a government-issued ID and a professional licence or certificate (an organisation uploads its CAC certificate and operating licence), and Welbridg's team reviews them.
- When does the provider get paid?
- Your payment is held by Welbridg, not passed to the provider, until you confirm the visit happened or 24 hours after the provider marks it delivered. If something goes wrong, report it within those 24 hours and the payment stays on hold while Welbridg reviews it. Welbridg can release it, refund it or split it.
- What if I need to cancel?
- Cancel before a visit is scheduled, or more than 24 hours before it, for a full refund. Cancel later than that and 20% of that visit's price goes to the provider. If the provider cancels, you get a full refund.
