Highlights

• The approval reduces the costs for women choosing TruScreen over conventional Pap Smear in private hospitals.
TruScreen Group Limited (NZX/ASX:TRU) is pleased to announce its distributor, Bettalife, in Saudi Arabia has successfully obtained reimbursement approval from most health insurance companies in the country. With reimbursement in place, women who are insured and opt for TruScreen over the conventional Pap Smear will receive TruScreen at a cheaper price point, making the advanced screening technology more accessible and cost-effective.
The subsidised costs for TruScreen usage will drive adoption within the private healthcare sector. Private health insurance is growing in Saudi Arabia, and is obligated for non-Saudis.

This approval will benefit women in Saudi Arabia and contribute to the continued success and expansion of TruScreen in the region."
