Mcis Life Ncsm Unveil Lungshield For Early Lung Cancer Detection


 
MCIS Insurance Bhd (MCIS Life) has collaborated with the National Cancer Society of Malaysia (NCSM) to introduce LungShield, a comprehensive lung screening package combining AI (artificial intelligence)-assisted screening with financial backing to support Malaysians at risk of lung cancer.

The initiative brings together medical expertise and insurance protection to make early detection more accessible, according to MCIS Life CEO Prasheem Seebran.
“LungShield reflects the power of collaboration by combining NCSM’s expertise in cancer prevention and screening with MCIS Life’s commitment to financial support for early detection and diagnosis,” he revealed.
“Together, we’re enabling more Malaysians to take proactive steps for their lung health, thus ensuring they’ve both the means to early detection and the confidence to face the journey ahead.”
MCIS Life CEO Prasheem SeebranAdded Prasheem: “LungShield is our latest meaningful initiative in expanding the legacy of MCIS Life which has been protecting Malaysians since 1954 with innovative solutions that combine care, technology and financial support.”.
Survival chance
Supported by the Health Ministry (MOH), the NCSM LungShield initiative which was recently launched by Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad comes at a crucial time when lung cancer continues to pose a major public health challenge.
The Malaysia National Cancer Registry Report 2017-2021 shows that lung cancer is the second most common cancer among men and the third most common among women.

Despite its prevalence, many cases are still diagnosed only at advanced stages, thus resulting in lower survival chances and heavier financial and healthcare burdens.
Henceforth, LungShield is a comprehensive lung cancer screening and diagnostic package that combines AI-assisted chest X-ray screening by NCSM with LungLife, a complementary insurance protection to support screenings required throughout the cancer detection journey.

Beyond screening, the package provides a complete diagnostic pathway – from the initial chest X-ray to advanced staging via the Computed Tomography of the Thorax, Abdomen and Pelvis (CT TAP) and immunohistochemistry – which ensures patients receive clear and accurate results.
Timely initiative
To reduce the financial strain that often accompanies a cancer diagnosis, LungShield also includes complementary insurance plan through LungLife which offers coverage of up to RM10,000 for one year to ease the cost of screening and diagnostic services while giving individuals peace of mind.
Priced at just RM129 for the first 10,000 sign-ups, the LungShield package which is valued at RM10,000 offers Malaysians an affordable way to access comprehensive lung health screening and diagnosis.
After the early bird phase, the package which is intended to enable more Malaysians to take charge of their lung health proactively will be available at its full price of RM179,
Meanwhile, Health Minister Dzulkefly described the initiative as timely and in line with the national health agenda.
“Lung cancer is among the leading causes of cancer deaths in Malaysia, mainly due to late detection. Affordable and accessible programmes like LungShield can save lives and ease the strain on our healthcare system,” he attested.

Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Dzulkefly AhmadMeanwhile, NCSM managing director Kol Bersekutu (PA) Prof Dr Murallitharan Munisamy said the programme was designed to address both medical and financial challenges.
“Our mission at NCSM has always been to ensure that no Malaysian is left behind in the fight against cancer,” he explained.
“With LungShield, we are providing cutting-edge tools for early detection alongside financial support to ease the journey of those at risk.” –  Focus Malaysia
