How to compare Taiwan health screening packages
Published 7 November 2026 · prices checked 22 September 2026
Compare the test list first, then the scans, then the price. Across 353 public packages at 48 hospitals, the median package lists 55 tests and costs US$717; the number of tests ranges from 20 to 97. A package's name tells you little: read what it contains.
This page compares published package contents and listed prices only. It does not name a hospital to choose.
1. Start with the number of tests
Hospitals count tests differently (one blood panel can be one line or twenty), so use the count to sort, not to rank. Of the 353 packages: 37 list 29 tests or fewer, 183 list 30 to 59, and 133 list 60 or more. The middle 80% list between 29 and 76. Our shared test list lines up the same test across hospitals; each package page says how many of its tests are on it.
2. Look at tiers
We sort packages into tiers by what they contain (rules on the cost page). Typical price is the median.
- Basic: 26 packages, from US$42, typically US$109, up to US$467
- Standard: 75 packages, from US$62, typically US$299, up to US$928
- Specialty: 55 packages, from US$62, typically US$710, up to US$2,368
- Premium: 103 packages, from US$109, typically US$869, up to US$7,322
- Executive: 74 packages, from US$498, typically US$1,844, up to US$5,610
3. Check which scans are in it
Number of the 353 packages that list each scan or procedure:
- Ultrasound: 291
- DEXA bone density: 180
- Low-dose chest CT: 106
- MRI: 88
- Gastroscopy: 98
- Colonoscopy: 91
- Mammography: 38
- Coronary CT angiography: 39
- PET-CT: 15
Scan-by-scan prices are on the cost pages, for example MRI and CT. Some scans carry radiation; each package page lists the dose where we have it.
4. See what moves the price
- With an MRI: typically US$1,554 (88 packages); without: US$523 (265).
- With a CT scan: typically US$1,184 (151 packages); without: US$467 (202).
- With a PET-CT: typically US$1,745 (15 packages); without: US$676 (338).
- With both gastroscopy and colonoscopy: typically US$1,146 (89 packages); without: US$526 (264).
- With none of these: typically US$249 (128 packages); with at least one: US$997 (225).
Packages with more scans usually include more of everything, so these gaps are not the price of the item itself.
5. Ask about the report
Of 48 hospitals with a public package, 4 state that an English or bilingual report is available (some on request or for a fee),2 state a Chinese-only report, and 42 do not say on the pages we checked. "Does not say" is not "no": ask the hospital, or choose Book it for me and we ask.
6. Put two or three side by side
Open the comparison tool to see the tests and prices of the packages you pick, line by line. Narrow first by city, focus or audience.
Limits
- Packages of different hospitals are not equivalent services even when the lists look alike; staffing, equipment and reporting differ and are not captured here.
- Prices are as published by each hospital and checked on the date shown; foreign-national prices may differ at some hospitals.
- Civil-servant programs are left out.
