Who writes this

MedTrip Korea is written and edited by one person, Jae Han: a long-term resident of South Korea who has spent a great deal of time on the patient side of Korean hospitals and clinics.

Jae Han is a pen name. The writer lives in Korea and prefers not to publish a legal name alongside descriptions of hospital visits; the email address below reaches the same person, and every correction request is answered by them.

The relevant experience

• Booking appointments at Korean university hospitals and neighbourhood clinics, in Korean, including the parts that cannot be done online.
• Admission, discharge and the document trail that follows — itemised receipts, medical certificates, records requests.
• Insurance claims filed against Korean hospital paperwork, and the reasons they get rejected.
• The everyday logistics: registration desks, department desks, payment desks, pharmacies, and how long each actually takes.

Personal medical details are not published here. They are not what makes the writing useful — the process is.

What this is not

The author is not a doctor, nurse, lawyer, tax adviser or licensed medical-tourism agent, and holds no position at any hospital or clinic. Nothing on this site is medical, legal or tax advice. Where a question needs a professional, the article says so and points to the official source instead of guessing.

Independence

No hospital, clinic or agency pays for coverage, placement or referrals here, and none reviews articles before publication. Site revenue comes from advertising and from affiliate links for ordinary travel services, disclosed where they appear.
