Yes. Must purchase by the 28th of this month, but can be used until 31 August. I purchased this and received a voucher that I will use for some follow up tests in May. Based on past test costs will save several thousand baht. This link says for Thai people, but actually includes anyone that resides here (expats).

Following the information supplied above, my wife went to the Bangkok hospital yesterday (16th) to inquire about the service. The receptionist told her that these tests were a special price as PART of a full health check-up which cost at total of 22,600 baht. :?

Has anyone else been to inquire? If so can you give further details?

Typical "bait and switch"! Or, most likely the receptionist didn't know what she was talking about and gave incorrect information....also typical for Thailand.
Colossians 2:8-10...See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, which are based on human tradition and the spiritual forces of the world rather than on Christ. For in HIM dwells all the fullness of the GODHEAD bodily; and you are complete in HIM, who is the head of all principality and power.

I provided the information based on personal experience. No bait and switch and no incorrect information. We paid 990 baht each for the tests I listed. They had an area set up with several nurses and everything was completed efficiently. I would not post the information if it wasn't first hand knowledge.

The day we went there was a large poster in the waiting area advertising the promotion.

The receptionist is obviously wrong or misinformed, or perhaps a communication breakdown. My wife received this service on the 15th. Exactly as advertised, no additional costs or requirements. I purchased this package to be used at a later date because it includes tests I need for a follow up appointment in May and will save me money. If you return, I would suggest talking with a different person until you are satisfied or bypassing the receptionist altogether and just go straight to the check-up department which is on the right past the receptionist desk as you walk into the large waiting area.

Thanks everyone. My wife probably got it wrong (as usual), or even went to the wrong hospital!!! :?

We went in yesterday, the 990 Baht check up is a standalone package. There are also Packages for a mammogram and HPV screening which are down from 6,000 Baht and 5,000 Baht to 2,500 Baht each you get a voucher of 1,500 for follow up use.

You need to arrive at 8 am having fasted from about 10 pm to midnight the night before it takes a maximum of about three hours about half an hour for the check up some selves then up to 2 hours to get the results.

You need to pay before the 28th but you can save them for later use
