Bengaluru, September 29, 2026: On the occasion of World Heart Day, Medicover Hospitals, Bengaluru, organised a public awareness programme to highlight the importance of heart health and regular heart health check-ups. The global campaign for World Heart Day 2026, under the theme “Don’t Miss a Beat,” called upon people not to ignore symptoms related to heart disease and to take preventive measures to protect their heart health.
The programme was attended by Shri Aravind Limbavali, former Minister of the Government of Karnataka and Chief Guest.
Complete Heart Screening Package at ₹999
As part of the World Heart Day initiative, Medicover Hospitals launched a special Heart Screening Package, which is normally valued at ₹6,500, and is being offered at ₹999.
The package includes:
- ECG
- 2D Echo / TMT
- Lipid Profile
- Creatinine
- RBS – Random Blood Sugar
- Cardiologist Consultation
In addition, CT Coronary Angiography, normally priced between ₹18,000 and ₹25,000, is being offered at ₹5,999 as a special World Heart Day offer. This special offer will be available until October 31, 2026.
Addressing the gathering, Chief Guest Shri Aravind Limbavali said, “Heart health is not limited to an individual’s well-being; it is closely connected to the happiness and peace of the entire family. In recent times, it is important for people of all age groups, including young people, to become more aware of heart health. Regular health check-ups, a healthy diet, physical activity and adopting a healthy lifestyle can help protect heart health. I hope this awareness programme undertaken by Medicover Hospitals on the occasion of World Heart Day creates greater awareness among people about heart health. I have just undergone a heart check-up at Medicover Hospitals, and I encourage you all to make use of this offer as well. It is also a matter of great happiness that Medicover Hospitals has provided two free ambulances for the people of Mahadevapura and has announced plans to provide three more free ambulances in the coming days.”
Speaking on the occasion, Shri Siddareddy, Regional Director, Medicover Hospitals, said, “Rather than seeking treatment after heart-related problems develop, it is extremely important to identify them at an early stage and take appropriate preventive measures. With today’s lifestyle, stress, dietary habits and other risk factors, everyone needs to pay greater attention to heart health. Through the special Heart Screening Package launched by Medicover Hospitals on the occasion of World Heart Day, our objective is to encourage people to get their heart health assessed. Everyone should take a step towards a healthy heart through ‘prevention and early detection’.”
Medicover Hospitals’ specialist doctors, Dr. Naga Srinivas and Dr. Major Jayaprasad, advised the public not to ignore symptoms such as chest pain, difficulty in breathing, excessive fatigue and abnormal heartbeats, and urged them to seek appropriate medical advice.
