Routing across the three tiers
Korea's checkup market splits into three layers: 16 university hospitals (in-house specialist follow-up, the oncologist is in the next building), 4+ Specialty Networks like KMI and 메디체크 (half-day throughput, transparent pricing), and Premium Specialty centres like CHAUM (membership wellness, multi-day). We match your profile to the right layer. Most foreigners default to the most-recognised name; that's often the wrong tier and 2× the price.
