Can I Add the Right Tests to a Health Checkup Package in Korea?
Yes—with Himedi
Make the most of add-on exams—efficient, affordable, and all in one place.
Why This Question Matters
Not everyone needs the same health checkup. Some travelers come to Korea for general screening. Others are here to investigate a specific concern—like a past diagnosis, current symptoms, or family history of disease.
At Himedi, one of the most common questions we get is:
“Can I customize my checkup by adding just the right tests?”
Yes, you can. And we’ll help you do it.
What Are Pre-Made Packages Designed For?
Most Korean health checkup centers offer structured packages built around:
-
Age and gender
-
Budget
-
Abnormality detection rate
These packages are efficient and reasonably priced. As you move up the tiers, you get more tests—especially for early detection across a wide range of diseases.
But what if you’re only concerned about one or two specific things?
Himedi customers often customize their checkups when:
🩺 They’ve had a previous illness or are experiencing new symptoms
❓ They want to avoid higher-tier packages that include tests they don’t need
⏱ Back home, the wait times are too long—or prices too high
💸 They want to stay within a set budget
🧬 They want to focus on family history (e.g., cancer, heart disease, or chronic illnesses)
With Himedi, you can start with a base package—and add only what matters to you.
👥 Real Stories: How Our Customers Did It
📍 Abdominal Imaging Without MRI or Sedation
One customer had a permanent metal implant that made MRI impossible—and preferred to avoid sedation.
Himedi suggested: Basic Checkup + Abdominal CT, everything was scheduled in one morning.
📍 Cancer Survivor – PET/CT Within Days
Another client, a cancer survivor, arrived in Seoul and wanted to screen for recurrence—fast.
In the U.S., this test would’ve taken over 3 weeks and cost more than $5,000.
Himedi arranged a PET/CT in 1–2 days, with full coordination in English via WhatsApp.
