[Zaria32]

Here's what it covered:

Height
Weight
Hearing (knock on the glass)
Sight
Blood pressure
Pee in a cup
Vial of blood
Chest x-ray, and get this,
they measured my bust, waist and hips... I'm 62, and these measurements don't mean much anymore as they've all sort of
run together so to speak, but I did ask if I was getting new
clothes...
60,000 won, boss didn't pay, I did.

How extensive was the eyesight check? Did you have any indication of what you would need to be able to read in order to pass?

I was quoted 120,000 won for those with health insurance, thus those extending with us, and 170,000 for those without insurance, those new to us. At least our company is paying for it. Mind you that quote was from Seoul National University.

I paid only 30,000 for my test at Ajou University Hospital in Suwon and the immigration office in Daejeon accepted the results without a problem.

My exam was exactly the same as Zaria's (minus the measurements). Eye test was glasses-on.

Cost: 50,000 won at Uri Hospital in Songu-ri, Pocheon.

..I ain't paying for crap! When it comes time for the CBC and Health Check, they better pay up otherwise I am going to the highest bidder.
