What should I check first when comparing Korean medicine clinics?

(1) Operating hours — Saturday/evening availability; (2) Location — accessibility, parking; (3) Whether the clinic has a board-certified Korean medicine specialist among 8 sub-specialties; (4) Herbal prescription prices — non-covered prices vary; HIRA's price disclosure system enables clinic-by-clinic comparison; (5) National Health Insurance coverage — acupuncture, cupping, moxibustion, chuna therapy, and select herbal pilot programs are covered. Comparing these factual points and confirming directly with the clinic is the typical workflow.

How does a clinic with a board-certified Korean medicine specialist differ from a general Korean medicine clinic?

Board-certified Korean medicine specialists complete additional training in 8 government-designated sub-specialties (Internal, Gynecology, Pediatrics, Otorhinolaryngology, Neuropsychiatry, Acupuncture & Moxibustion, Rehabilitation, Sasang Constitutional Medicine). For chronic or specialty-specific care, this is one factor to consider. All licensed Korean medicine clinics may legally provide acupuncture and herbal prescriptions. Specialist status is a relevant criterion but does not by itself indicate quality ranking.

Why do herbal medicine prices vary between Korean medicine clinics?

Differences arise from herbal raw material grade and origin, prescription composition, preparation method (decoction vs pills/powder), and clinic operating costs. Non-covered herbal prescriptions are not subject to government price control. The pilot insurance program for select conditions applies standardized pricing.

How do I check Korean medicine clinic hours and closures?

Refer to the 'Hours' column or each clinic's detail page. Korean medicine clinics often have longer lunch breaks or Saturday-morning-only operations. Hours can change; we recommend cross-checking via Kakao Map or Naver Place, or contacting the clinic directly before visiting.
