Non-Communicable Diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and high cholesterol are increasingly threatening public health in Indonesia. According to the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia, these three silent diseases are among the leading contributors to the national health burden and are often detected only when it is too late for effective treatment. Responding to this condition, Dexa Medica launched the “Cek Segitiga” initiative as a tangible step for early detection and prevention of Non-Communicable Diseases. Through this program, Dexa Medica supports the government’s agenda by providing free health screening services, combating the threat of Non-Communicable Diseases, and fostering public awareness on the importance of a healthy lifestyle.
This initiative also aligns with the government’s National Free Health Screening campaign, promoted as a quick-win strategy in the health sector. Consequently, the public not only gains access to cost-free medical examinations but also a strong reminder that maintaining health is a long-term investment.
Key Findings from the Field
Since its inception in 2024, the program has reached 13 locations across nine major cities, including Jakarta, South Tangerang, Bogor, Bandung, Surabaya, Yogyakarta, Solo, Karawang, and Palembang. As of September 2025, more than 9,250 individuals have benefited from these free medical services.
The results have delivered a stark warning:
23.13 percent of participants were diagnosed with hypertension,
36.18 percent were found with high cholesterol,
4.19 percent showed elevated blood sugar levels.
“The majority of people still neglect routine health screenings. We aim to change that,” stated V. Hery Sutanto, President Director of PT Dexa Medica, during the program’s opening in Palembang on 21 September 2025. “As a national pharmaceutical company, we carry a significant responsibility to ensure that public health is well protected. This program is a concrete manifestation of our vision: to deliver high-quality medicines while simultaneously promoting a healthy lifestyle for everyone,” he added.
Collaboration with Government and Communities
The Dexa Medica Health Screening Program is not a ceremonial event, but a well-structured initiative designed to support the government in expanding early detection of Non-Communicable Diseases. By integrating medical check-ups with community-based sports activities such as poundfit and health exercises, the message of health awareness is more effectively communicated to the public.
“We cannot work in isolation. Cross-sector collaboration—from healthcare facilities, community sports groups, to local leaders—is essential for embedding health awareness deeply within society,” said Mateus Ramidi, Manager of Dharma Dexa, the Corporate Social Initiatives unit of Dexa Group.
This inclusive approach has created a lively and engaging atmosphere. The enthusiasm of participants was not only driven by free health screenings but also by the educational and enjoyable setting. In this way, the public not only becomes aware of their health risks but is also motivated to take real steps towards healthier living.
Long-Term Commitment for a Healthier Indonesia
More than a simple medical check-up, the Dexa Medica Health Screening Program is a reflection of the company’s philosophy: Expertise for the Promotion of Health. This philosophy is translated into concrete action by supporting the government’s mission to reduce the prevalence of Non-Communicable Diseases, in alignment with national health development goals.
With its outreach continuing to expand, this program is not the conclusion but the beginning of a long-term commitment towards building a healthier Indonesia. Dexa Medica reiterates its pledge to remain at the forefront—together with the government, communities, and the public—in combating the threat of Non-Communicable Diseases.
“This is a long-term journey. The health of the population is not solely the responsibility of the government but also of the private sector, communities, and every individual,” concluded Hery Sutanto.
