We chose to keep our US Based Insurance as we have a daughter still in the United States.

Our experience with Korean Health care is that it is very efficient. Tests are done in an open environment which takes a bit of getting used too... but we have been very satisfied with the quality and the cost.

Our primary encounters has been with International Clinics at Severance Hosptial, Ajou University Hospital and ASAN Medical Center.

My family is very pleased with the reasonable cost and convenience of health care in Korea. We maintain insurance with US based CIGNA expatriate services. Most items are reimbursed at 85%. Having a baby at a local hospital in the Songtan area was simple and inexpensive.
