For Korean hospitals,
and for US employers.

We move American patients into Korean operating rooms with their records translated, their price capped and their money held in escrow. That takes partners on both ends, and what we ask of each is different.

01 Hospitals & clinics in Korea

International patients who arrive prepared, and paid.

Most inbound enquiries reach your international healthcare centre as half files: untranslated records, missing imaging, an unclear payer. Ours do not. We assemble and translate to your intake standard before submission, secure payment in escrow before arrival, and handle interpretation and scheduling on the ground. Your team sees a complete case and a confirmed patient.

  • Records assembled, digitised and translated to your intake standard
  • Payment secured in escrow before the patient boards
  • Interpreter and logistics handled, with no added burden on your IHC staff
  • Published-fee pathways respected, with no undisclosed markup
  • Our commission stays inside the government ceiling, and we show you the number
  • Aftercare handoff, so your outcomes are followed rather than lost at the airport
What we will ask of you

The due diligence runs both ways.

We publish evidence grades to patients and we name the centre we send them to, so we cannot take a partner on trust. Before a first case we will ask you to confirm, in writing:

  1. Licence and board certification for the named treating physician, not the department
  2. Annual case volume for the specific procedure, and who is holding the instrument
  3. Written revision and complication terms, including who pays for what
  4. Anaesthesia arrangement and the anaesthesiologist's attendance
  5. Operating room CCTV compliance under the 2023 Medical Service Act amendment
  6. Interpretation: which languages, and whether interpreters hold medical certification
  7. Which departments can actually run in English end to end, and which cannot
  8. Discharge reporting in English, and whether DICOM originals travel with the patient

02 Employers, brokers & insurers

A benefit people actually use, because it saves them thousands.

American employees delay care because of the deductible, then present late and expensive. ANDO gives your population a credible alternative: world-class treatment in Seoul at 30 to 60% of the US bill, capped before departure and held in escrow. You are not asking anyone to gamble. Every centre is vetted, every quote is itemised, and every record comes home in English.

  • One capped price, agreed in writing before anyone flies
  • Escrow custody, released against treatment milestones as they complete
  • Vetted centres only: licence, case volumes and revision terms on file
  • Records returned in English, with the DICOM originals
  • Aftercare scheduled before departure, not improvised afterwards
  • We take no commission from the clinic side, so the recommendation is not bought
How a pilot usually starts

One category, one quarter, a number you can audit.

We do not recommend launching this across a whole benefit plan. The honest version is narrower and easier to judge.

  1. Pick one high-deductible category where your population already defers care
  2. We publish the capped price and the evidence behind it to your members
  3. Anyone who wants it gets a written second opinion first, at our cost, including the ones we tell to stay home
  4. At the end of the quarter you have real case economics, not a projection

03 What we charge

There is a legal ceiling, and we publish it.

Korean government notice caps what any registered facilitator may charge on a foreign patient's treatment cost. It is public, it binds the facilitation on every case we coordinate, and we would rather you read it here than discover it later.

15%
Tertiary general hospitals
The 상급종합병원 tier, where most oncology and complex surgical cases run.
20%
General hospitals
The 종합병원 tier, including many checkup centres.
30%
Clinics
The 의원 tier, where most dental, vision and aesthetic work is done.

These are legal maximums set by Ministry of Health and Welfare notice, not a rate card. ANDO is not a medical provider. Facilitation inside Korea is carried out by our registered partner, and these caps bind that work on every case we coordinate. Every treatment is delivered at a licensed institution registered to treat international patients.
