Q&A: How to Choose the Right Health Check-up Package

Q1. How to choose a checkup package? Tips from Consumer Council for body check-ups.
With a wide range of physical examination plans available, the examination items and costs can vary greatly. How should one choose when making a reservation for a body check-up? The Consumer Council recently compared the body check-up reports of 26 medical institutions in the market and provided the following tips for selecting a body check-up:

Tip 1: Consider whether the body check-up is suitable for your age
Most body check-up plans specify the appropriate age range, such as 12 to 20 years old or below 40 years old. It is ideal to have specialists provide suitable examination content for individuals.
Tip 2: Professional qualifications of the personnel conducting the examination, report writing, and explanation
Many medical institutions have healthcare professionals, registered doctors, radiology technicians, or laboratory personnel in charge. It is preferable to have doctors responsible for the examination and report explanation.
Tip 3: Selecting male/female healthcare professionals
Physical examinations may involve contact with intimate areas for both males and females. Some institutions allow individuals to choose the gender of doctors and healthcare professionals. Some gynecological examinations are specifically handled by female doctors and healthcare teams to reduce discomfort during the check-up.
Tip 4: Consider the waiting time for reports
Preparing examination reports takes time, ranging from one week to a month. If there is an urgent need to obtain the examination report, you can choose institutions with shorter report issuance times or arrange for expedited report generation, thereby accelerating the process of receiving the examination report.

Receiving normal results in the examination report is certainly a relief. However, if you notice any abnormal conditions in your body after the check-up, it is important to seek medical attention promptly for further examination. The report also includes advice from the Department of Health, emphasizing the importance of cancer screening even if there are no visible symptoms, as early detection of pre-cancerous conditions and cancer leads to better treatment outcomes.
Q2. When should I start doing a body check?
It is generally recommended to start regular physical examinations at the age of 30. As age advances, the examination items should be adjusted accordingly. In recent years, there has been a trend of younger onset for chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and hypertension. Individuals around the age of 25 who undergo their first physical examination can undergo basic checks such as blood pressure, blood sugar, lipid profile, and resting electrocardiogram to assess the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
Q3. What procedures are involved in a body check? 
  1. Reception at the medical centre/hospital (some medical institutions provide separate VIP rooms)
  2. Basic health assessment
  3. Blood and urine tests
  4. Cancer screening (blood tests for cancer markers)
  5. Cardiac function assessment (electrocardiogram)
  6. Chest and lung function assessment (chest X-ray/spirometry)
  7. Ultrasound scanning
  8. Explanation of the examination report
Q4. How many times should I do a body check? Is it unnecessary after one check-up?
Each physical examination can only record the body's condition at that moment. As the body undergoes changes with age, it is necessary to undergo regular physical examinations at certain intervals. For example, in the case of women, the main purpose of the examination is to prevent breast cancer and related uterine cancers. By adhering to regular check-ups, the risk of developing these two types of cancers can be significantly reduced.
Q5. Should I fast before a body check?
Whether fasting is required before the examination depends on the selected examination items. It cannot be generalized, so communication with the examination center is necessary to confirm whether fasting is required. Generally, on the night before the examination, one should have a regular diet so that the examination results can accurately reflect the body's condition. In particular, diabetic patients should not intentionally fast before blood glucose testing to avoid skewed data.
Q6. Can I interpret the report by myself?
Although the report includes the normal values for various indicators, these values are for reference only. The interpretation of the report, whether it indicates good or poor health, should be done by professionals who have received specialized training, such as doctors and nurses. They can provide an accurate understanding of the body's condition and the implications behind the various indices. For example, certain indicators may deviate due to various reasons, such as an increase in CA125, an ovarian cancer marker, during the menstrual cycle for women. Therefore, in addition to following the examination instructions provided by the examination center, it is recommended to have a doctor explain various situations that may cause abnormal results.
