What is included in the Essential program?

Bloods and tumour markers, chest X-ray, abdominal and thyroid ultrasound, ECG, bone density and a gastroscopy or upper-GI series.

Is this price the final price?

The range is $310–410, and it is a range for two reasons rather than one. The three centres these ranges are drawn from publish different prices for comparable programs, and within a centre the men's and women's programs differ. Your own figure is quoted before you book, in your currency, and the won original is ₩450,000–₩600,000.

Why is the price shown in dollars when the source is in won?

Because the reader is usually deciding in dollars. The published figure is the won one, ₩450,000–₩600,000, and the dollar figure is a conversion at ₩1,460 = $1 (XE.com mid-market rate, 2026-07-28). The amount actually charged is quoted in your currency at booking rather than computed from that rate.

KMI (한국의학연구소), Hanaro Medical Foundation (하나로의료재단) and Hanshin Medipia (한신메디피아) each publish their own non-covered (비급여) price list, disclosure of which is required by Korean law (https://www.kmi.or.kr/HLCHK/PERSONAL; https://www.hanaromf.com/program/prog01/prog01_01.jsp; https://hsmedipia.co.kr/inspection/indivisual/class/all), measured 2026-07-28.

Where this sits

Against the other programs.

Every program on this site is a real, published program at one of three Korean screening centres rather than a package assembled here. The tiers move together in one direction: bloods and ultrasound and a gastroscopy, then a CT and a colonoscopy on top, then an MRI on top of that.
