Corporate Wellness Ultrasound Services

UK employers are facing record levels of sickness absence, with the impact rising sharply in recent years. In 2024 alone, UK workers lost 148.9 million working days to sickness, which is 9.9 million more than before the pandemic .

Illhealth now costs UK employers an estimated £85 billion every year, including £10 billion in sick pay, £47 billion in lost output, and £21 billion in lost productivity due to presenteeism .

Employees are also taking more time off than before. The average worker was absent for 7.8 days last year, compared with 5.8 days prepandemic—a 34% increase that directly affects productivity and operational continuity .

Long NHS waiting times contribute significantly to this problem. Delayed access to diagnostic imaging leads to prolonged symptoms, slower recovery, and extended time off work. Many employees wait months for ultrasound scans, during which minor issues can escalate into longterm conditions.

ScanAssure’s Corporate Wellness Ultrasound Programme provides a direct solution. By giving your employees rapid access to highquality diagnostic imaging—either at our Manchester or Liverpool clinics, or directly at your workplace through our mobile scanning service—you enable early detection, faster treatment, and reduced absence. This proactive approach supports a healthier, more resilient workforce and helps protect your organisation from the rising financial burden of
sickness absence.

Early Diagnosis Prevents LongTerm Absence

Musculoskeletal injuries, abdominal pain, pelvic issues, and softtissue lumps are among the most common causes of GP visits and sickness absence. Ultrasound provides fast, accurate answers—helping employees access treatment sooner and
return to work quicker.

Faster Access Than NHS Pathways

With NHS waiting times increasing, employees often wait months for imaging. We provide sameweek appointments and 24hour reporting, reducing anxiety and preventing conditions from worsening.

A Proven Way to Reduce Costs

Every day of absence impacts productivity. Early diagnosis reduces avoidable downtime, improves workforce performance, and lowers longterm healthrelated costs.

Employees receive reducedcost scans at our citycentre clinics. Perfect for companies wanting to enhance their wellbeing offering with minimal operational disruption.

2. OnSite Corporate Wellness Days

We bring our mobile ultrasound equipment directly to your workplace (subject to suitability). Ideal for larger teams, shiftbased environments, or organisations wanting maximum convenience and high uptake. Both options are fully managed by ScanAssure—your team simply books in, and we

Our experienced clinicians provide a wide range of highvalue diagnostic scans,
including:

• Musculoskeletal ultrasound (shoulder, elbow, knee, hand & wrist, hip, ankle, tendons, ligaments)
• Upper abdominal ultrasound (liver, gallbladder, pancreas, aorta, spleen,
  kidneys)
• Lower abdominal ultrasound (bladder, kidneys, prostate, aorta)
• Pelvic ultrasound (uterus, ovaries, bladder, cervix, endometrium, fallopian
  tubes*)
• Testicular ultrasound
• Softtissue lumps and bumps

These areas represent some of the most common causes of sickness absence and delayed diagnosis.

Employee wellness days are rapidly becoming a core part of modern workforce
strategy. With rising sickness absence and increasing pressure on NHS services, employers are expected to take a more proactive role in supporting staff health.

A dedicated Corporate Wellness Ultrasound Day provides:

• Immediate access to diagnostic imaging
• Reduced stress and anxiety for employees
• Early identification of health issues
• A visible demonstration of employer care
• A boost to morale, loyalty, and retention

Wellness days show your workforce that their health is a genuine priority—not just a policy statement.

• Employees feel valued and supported, strengthening engagement and
  retention.
• Rapid answers reduce stress, worry, and uncertainty about ongoing
  symptoms.
• Early diagnosis prevents minor issues from becoming longterm conditions.
• Staff appreciate practical, meaningful benefits that directly improve their lives.
• A healthier workforce leads to higher productivity and fewer absences.

Modern employers are expected to:

• Support employee wellbeing proactively
• Reduce avoidable sickness absence
• Provide safe, healthy working environments
• Demonstrate strong corporate social responsibility (CSR)
• Offer meaningful, accessible wellbeing benefits

Corporate ultrasound screening is a powerful, measurable way to meet these responsibilities.

Offering workplace ultrasound screening:

• Demonstrates ethical leadership

• Shows genuine investment in employee health
• Strengthens your wellbeing and CSR credentials
• Helps build a healthier, more resilient workforce

This is a tangible, highimpact wellbeing initiative that employees truly value.
