One of my coworkers said that schools are required to pay for our visa medical exams. At first our hagwon was going to pay for exams but then they changed their tune. Its not in my contract, so I havent said anything about it. Im just curious if there is an official rule or not.

Your school is under no legal requirement to pay for it.

I swear every two weeks this comes up. Insurance/employers back home don't cover it, why would they do it here?
