Pratikno expressed his satisfaction with the comprehensive examination, which included assessments of his eyes, teeth, balance, and physical stability.
He also expressed gratitude to the health workers for their contributions to the successful implementation of the CKG program so far.
"It was a memory test, physical stability test, one leg stability test, and so on. Make this a very thorough examination," Pratikno remarked.
He arrived at the health center in Gambir at around 8:23 a.m. local time and underwent the registration process, following the same procedure as the general public.
His check-up was completed about two hours later, at 10:30 a.m. local time.
Pratikno also highlighted that the receipt he received after the check-up indicated a zero-cost fee, signifying that the government subsidizes all health examinations as a birthday gift for residents.
He urged all Indonesians to make the most of this program and register for the free examination at their nearest health facility to gain a better understanding of their health conditions and adopt necessary lifestyle changes.
According to Pratikno, the CKG Program represents a shift in healthcare, moving from curative treatment to preventive care.
"After being aware of the health issues, individuals must improve their lifestyle, as this marks a change in the approach from curative to preventive," Pratikno emphasized.
Launched on February 10, 2025, the Free Health Check-up aims to improve the quality of public health through the early detection of various diseases.
