Medical examination and health certificate generally takes between $200 and $800, and the actual costs are influenced by a variety of factors, including medical examination projects, regional differences, hospital grades, type of health certificate, additional services, etc。
1. Medical examination project
The basic medical examination package usually includes items such as blood, urine, liver function, chest perforation, etc., at relatively low cost. There would be a marked increase in costs if special examinations such as electrocardiograms, superbs and oncology screening were added. There are significant differences in the examination programmes required by different occupations, such as the catering industry, which focuses on screening for infectious diseases。
Regional differences
Medical examination costs are generally higher in front-line cities than in primary health-care institutions and are usually higher in economically developed areas. Some public health institutions provide free basic health certificates, subject to certain conditions。
3. Hospital level
Medical examination centres at level iii hospitals are more equipped and comprehensive, with higher costs than level ii hospitals. Private health-care institutions often have preferential food packages, but some special examinations still require additional fees。
4. Type of health certificate
Health certificates for general catering differ from the test criteria for special occupational health certificates (e. G. Cosmetics production), which require additional items such as skin examinations. The validity of a health certificate also affects the overall cost, which is higher for the processing of long-term valid documents。
Additional services
Additional costs would arise for value-added services such as emergency accreditation, report mailing, health counselling, etc. Group discounts are available for group medical examinations in part, with full costs to be borne by the individual。
Before proceeding, it is recommended that specific uses and requirements be identified and that medical institutions be selected to meet the requirements. The content and price of the telephone consultation package can be consulted in advance, which is wasteful to avoid double-checking. Care is taken to retain the contribution vouchers, and the costs of health certificates in some areas are reimbursed by the employer. Periodic medical examinations help to detect health risks at an early stage and recommend individualized screening programmes based on age and occupational characteristics. Food balance and regularity help to maintain normal medical examination indicators and reduce the cost of re-examination resulting from abnormal results。
