Health Check-ups in Korea:
Expectation vs. Reality
You expect world-class service, but what you often get is confusion and anxiety. CHECKIT bridges the gap.
See the RealityWhat You Expect from Korean Healthcare
#1. Cost Efficiency
“Medical care in Korea is known to be dramatically cheaper than in the U.S.”
#2. Convenience
“The entire process is expected to be simple and hassle-free.”
#3. Professional Quality
“Facilities and medical standards are expected to be world-class.”
#4. Time Safety
“It’s expected to be quick, with minimal impact on your schedule.”
But then, reality hits.
No English Support
- Staff members avoid calls because they can’t speak English.
- Instructions, prep guides, and alerts are all in Korean.
- Sensitive questions (periods, surgery, symptoms) receive no real explanation.
- During the exam, every announcement is in Korean only.
Confusing Process
- You don’t even know what’s included in your check-up package.
- Prep items arrive with no explanation on how to use them.
- Colonoscopy medication is explained only in Korean → exam fails.
- The pre-check questionnaire is long, complicated, and entirely in Korean.
Unreliable Scheduling
- It takes 2-3 days just to secure a reservation.
- Different staff give different answers — no one takes responsibility.
- No Korean phone number → no reminders or prep instructions.
- Overseas time difference → calls fail, booking gets delayed.
Delayed Results & Zero Accountability
- Results mailed physically to an address you don’t have.
- Results delayed for weeks — even after you leave Korea.
- You can’t get receipts due to overseas phone verification limits.
- No explanation about post-exam rules (e.g., flying after polyp removal).

NOTICE
Why foreigners pay more for the same medical checkups in Korea
We're often asked this question.
"Why are your options cheaper than what hospitals offer?"
The short answer:
It's not because the tests are different.
It's because the pricing structure is.
What actually happens in many hospitals
Most hospitals create separate "foreigner packages." These packages often bundle services that locals don't pay for – which raises the total price.
A common situation we see with foreign clients
A client was quoted ₩1,800,000 for a foreigner package. With guidance, the same tests were booked for ₩1,050,000.
