Top hospital for this in Daejeon · Newsweek #19 in South Korea
#19 Chungnam National University Hospital 3.2★ KOIHA 의료기관인증 (Korea Institute for Healthcare Accreditation) — 상급종합병원/급성기 (tertiary hospital, acute-care) certification
Chungnam National University Hospital (충남대학교병원) is a public national-university tertiary teaching hospital (상급종합병원) in Munhwa-ro, Jung-gu, Daejeon, established 1972 as the first teaching hospital in Korea's central Chungcheong region. It is affiliated with Chungnam National University College of Medicine and is distinct from its own 2020-opened sister campus, Sejong Chungnam National University Hospital, and from Chonnam National University Hospital (전남/Jeollanam-do) and Chonnam National University-Hwasun Hospital, unrelated institutions with similar-sounding romanized names. It holds current KOIHA acute-care/tertiary accreditation (cert 4-15, valid 2023-02-07 to 2027-02-06, directory-verified via 소비자24); no JCI accreditation is claimed. Its own 2025-12 hospital-status dashboard reports 1,186 operating beds (down from 1,409 in 2015, per its own decade-long facilities chart), while its KOIHA registry entry separately lists 1,303 licensed beds — both cited rather than averaged. It runs a Gamma Knife radiosurgery center, organ- and hematopoietic-stem-cell-transplant programs, a critical care center, and a regionally-designated rare-disease referral institution, alongside a broad roster of clinical departments spanning internal medicine subspecialties, surgery, women's/children's health, and dentistry. Its own mandated 비급여 (non-covered) fee disclosure carries a dental-implant line (1.9-3.0M won per tooth, materials included), manual therapy (33,000-55,100 won/day), musculoskeletal ESWT (134,000-294,100 won), and a flat-priced brain MRI menu (741,800 won regardless of contrast or field strength) — but no plain diagnostic CT line item was found anywhere in its disclosure database. Its Comprehensive Health Promotion Center separately publishes self-pay screening-program prices from an entry '2030검진' tier (450,000/500,000 won) up to a top cerebro/cardiovascular precision tier (3.5-3.99M won); no separate foreigner-package pricing was found on its International Healthcare Center page.

South Korea for medical travel — safety, recourse & visa
Sourced Full South Korea guide →What matters if it goes wrong, and what it takes to get there — country-level, verifiable guidance in one place.
- Visa
- Most Western nationalities (US, UK, EU/Schengen, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Japan) enter visa-free for short medical or tourist visits. The K-ETA (electronic travel authorization) requirement is temporarily WAIVED for 67 countries and territories through 31 December 2026 — eligible travellers enter without applying for a K-ETA; the requirement is expected to resume 1 January 2027. Confirm your nationality's current rule before travelling.
- Medical / long-stay visa
- For treatment, foreign patients typically use the C-3-3 medical tourism visa (short-term, stays up to 90 days, generally not extendable beyond 90 days except in special circumstances). For treatment or recovery longer than 90 days, patients change to or apply for the G-1-10 long-term medical treatment visa, which can be extended inside Korea; it requires hospital documentation (medical opinion, treatment schedule, payment records). Applications must be tied to a medical institution registered with KTO/KHIDI.
- Arrival
- From 1 January 2026, all foreign arrivals must file the mandatory digital e-Arrival Card online (within 3 days before arrival) — it replaces the paper disembarkation card and is a declaration, not a visa. Travellers who hold an approved K-ETA are exempt from the arrival card, but nationals of K-ETA-waived countries (US, UK, EU, Japan, etc.) must still complete the e-Arrival Card.
- Currency
- South Korean Won (KRW, ₩)
- Languages
- Korean; English widely spoken in international-patient centers at major hospitals, with interpreter services in multiple languages
- Traveller safety
- Very safe for visitors
- Legal recourse
- Established malpractice recourse
- Insurance
- Medical-travel & complication cover widely available
- International patients
- Hospitals accustomed to international patients
General guidance from public sources — confirm current rules for your nationality. Verified against: Korea Immigration — K-ETA temporary exemption extended to 31 Dec 2026 (MOFA/KPMG GMS alert) · Korea e-Arrival Card mandatory from 1 Jan 2026 · Medical Korea — medical visa (C-3-3 / G-1-10), KHIDI · MOHW — Korea attracts 1.17 million foreign patients in 2024.
