PRICELINE Pharmacy has provided more than three million health checks at its instore health stations since rolling them out nationwide in 2015.
Priceline Pharmacy Retail Director Richard Pearson said, "our 310 health stations are in stores across every state and territory, and provide 1.2 million Australians important insights about their health and health risks, all in the time it takes for a script to be filled".
The data provided by repeat users of Priceline health stations, such as by brand ambassador Olivia Rogers (pictured), has provided valuable insights into the health of the nation.
Over the past two years repeat users of the health stations demonstrated a strong bounce back from the impacts of COVID lockdowns, revealed Priceline.
Users with high blood pressure (140/90mmHg or higher) decreased by 18%; people with high body fat percentage (risk level varies by age and gender) decreased by 6.4%; the number of smokers decreased by 9.1%; and users achieved a net weight reduction of 12,471 kg. JG
