Before you book
What the center says
From the center's own pages, in English. Each statement links to its source.
Check-in for the health checkup is from 7:45 to 8:00 am on the exam day.
Besides cash, the hospital accepts VISA and Mastercard for payment.
Patients who want to cancel or reschedule are asked to notify the center at least three days in advance.
For this civil-servant checkup plan, patients are asked to bring their NHI card and work ID badge on the day, to check in and confirm their identity.
Patients are asked to fast completely, including water, from midnight the night before the checkup.
To avoid false-negative or false-positive results, the center asks patients to stop any non-essential medication or supplement one week before the checkup.
The stool sample should be collected within 24 hours before the exam day.
Patients with diabetes, high blood pressure, or heart disease are asked to tell the checkup staff, skip their morning medication on the exam day, bring it along, and take it after the fasting tests are finished.
Women who are pregnant or may be pregnant are asked to tell the checkup staff, who will skip the X-ray and bone density tests.
Patients are asked not to wear nail polish or lipstick on the day of the checkup.
Patients are asked not to wear contact lenses, since this would prevent the eye pressure test and fundus exam from being done.
Patients who need the pupil-dilation eye exam are asked not to drive themselves.
Patients are asked to wear loose, comfortable clothing without metal parts such as sequins or buttons, to bring their own warm clothing in cold weather, and to wear sneakers if a treadmill (exercise) EKG is scheduled.
The center provides a locker for belongings, but patients are asked not to bring valuable jewelry, since they are responsible for it if it is lost.
Female patients who are menstruating are asked to notify the center in advance to reschedule.
Women having a Pap smear are asked not to have intercourse, vaginal douching, or vaginal suppositories the day before.
For colonoscopy patients, the center directs taking the second SlipFeel dose before 5am on the exam day and stopping all food and water after 5:30am, because the exam is done under general anesthesia which needs at least two hours without food or water.
On the day, patients are asked to bring the checkup fee, their ID card and NHI card (as backup), and a stool sample if one is required.
Ask your own doctor before changing any medicine.
A doctor's health consultation and overall assessment is included as part of the checkup visit.
Reports are mailed out 10 days after the checkup, not counting Sundays.
For exams using special precision equipment, the mailed report package includes a CD of the images.
The full written report, including images, is mailed to patients after the checkup.
If the checkup report shows an abnormal result, the center proactively contacts the patient before mailing the report.

General preparation notes for 6 tests in this package
This is general information about how the exam is usually done, not medical advice for you or your family member. Requirements vary by center and by individual health history — always follow the center's own instructions and your own doctor's guidance, especially for any medicine change.
Mention when booking: Mention a pacemaker or implanted defibrillator: the test passes a weak electric current through the body and has traditionally not been recommended with these devices.
Fasting for 9 to 12 hours (no food or drink except plain water) is often requested, so the test is often done in the morning.
Mention when booking: Confirm with the center whether your test needs fasting; if you take insulin or other diabetes medicine, ask the prescribing doctor how to manage it while fasting.
Fasting for 9 to 12 hours (no food or drink except plain water) is often requested.
Mention when booking: Confirm with the center whether your test needs fasting; if you take insulin or other diabetes medicine, ask the prescribing doctor how to manage it while fasting.
Usually needs at least 8 hours without food or drink except water beforehand.
Mention when booking: If you take insulin or other diabetes medicine, ask the prescribing doctor how to manage it while fasting, and mention it to the center.
Usually needs about 6 hours without food beforehand; clear fluids other than milk or fizzy drinks are commonly still allowed. Loose, comfortable clothing is easiest.
Mention when booking: Mention if you have type 1 diabetes, so the center can offer an early appointment time.
Usually needs little or no preparation; an enema and antibiotics are mainly for a planned biopsy. A scan through the lower belly instead may need a full bladder.
Mention when booking: Mention aspirin or other blood thinners; if a biopsy is planned, the center may ask about pausing them, so ask the prescribing doctor before changing any medicine.
